I usually make my own blue cheese dressing, too. This was a bottle that I knew (store brand Chunky Blue Cheese) that I knew had preservatives and would last in the fridge for sporadic use when I didn't make my own for some reason. And the kicker was, at the time it happened, I was THINKING "Why did they put a restricted exit squeeze top on a chunky dressing?!?" Arghh!

As it was, there were obvious oil stains on the sweater when it was partially dry, so I put grease-cutting dishwashing liquid on the spots and will deal with them maybe tomorrow morning, maybe Saturday.

But IMMEDIATELY I had to figure out what to wear instead -- preferably just a different sweater that would go with everything else (turtleneck, jewelry, etcet etcet) because I didn't have TIME to change clothes completely.

That was the high point of my day, by the way. I had the kind of customers that reminded me (and made me grateful!) why I never had kids. The drive home was slippery and tedious. And windy.

Just talked to Tom -- he doesn't yet know when they'll give him his last treatment or when they'll remove the PICC or when he'll be released on Saturday.

Right now I've got to get a couple more loads of wood -- it's supposed to be pretty cold tonight. At least I don't have to be to work until 10 tomorrow (no optech conference call at 9:30).

Later! (But not tonight -- I'm running way late and hope to get to sleep before 11.)
