Well, this is going to be productive

I folded three heaping baskets of laundry last night, figured out my coffee maker does work (but the coffee I had was bad), and charted the new layout for my bedroom. The new layout isn't going to be easy (I'll have to empty out a huge bookcase to move it), and it was good to actually measure (I was going to put the bookcase in a 7" deep space), but it will be much better, I think. And I'll get to really use Fudgie (G named it) again.

OK, so there are some benefits to that ol' absence thing...
