Z is sitting at the kitchen table at his computer, looking bored. I walk through the kitchen carrying water to the fish tank, enroute from starting another load of laundry. "'Sup," he says.
"Refilling the fish tank," I answer.
"I got nothin' to do this morning," he says. "Projects lined up, but waiting for client approvals."
"Hey," I say, brightening. "You could help me hang curtain rods!"
"What is it with you?" he asks. "You're just like my mom! 'Mom, I'm bored!' 'Oh? Clean your room then!'"
"Seems sensible to me," I said. "If you're bored, I always have plenty to do."
I like having things done around the house. I don't really like doing them, but somebody has to do them.
Of course, by 'having things done'... If he gets these curtain rods up, then I had probably better finish the curtains I started making, um, over a year ago. Yeah, that'd be nice.
I'm better at sewing now, though. Wasn't that the point of learning to sew?
OH yeah. I'd forgotten. I spent like $200 on fabric. I was making drapes.
... I should probably find out where I put all that fabric.
