This day ended pretty quickly. I got dropped of in town, meandered for a bit, got picked up and went grocery shopping. I swear they've never heard of bagels here cause I finally found them, frozen, in one of the corners of the store. I also bought some juice, turkey, and cheese.

For those who may be unaware of what it's like to take a shower in 40 house, I'll recap for you. 1. take towel and fresh clothes into bathroom 2. undress and get into shower as quickly as possible, pray its still hot water (the hottest setting will not be even closing to burning temp) 3. scrub like your life depends upon it 4. turn water off, dry yourself off, and haul your tuchus to some fresh clothing. The floor is awful so remember to wipe your feet somewhere before trying to put pants, socks or anything else on.

My genius move today was to wait until everyone was out of the house so I could stick the sweats I'd be changing into in front of the woodstove so when I sprinted out of that bathroom I stepped into some toasty clothes. To take a line from Charlie Sheen who probably slept more nights in the bathrooms I speak of, winning.
