Today my husband suggested we “work on the garage”—meaning:
we shuffle around his collection of crap and empty cardboard boxes he refuses
to throw away. Not my idea of a good time. We have rarely managed to “work on
the garage” without yelling at each other. The amount of hostility we are capable
of unleashing is sometimes worrisome.
We did okay today though, mostly because I kept my yap shut.
I’ve learned you can’t get into too much trouble if you only shrug or nod
approvingly. I posted a bunch of garage-junk to the Westport facebook
free-cycle site and have already dispatched a lamp, some toys and a janky hamster
cage to other homes.
Since many of my friends have been texting me
pictures of their loaves of homemade bread, I decided to indulge my masochistic
side and try it. I’ve attempted bread a few times before, never with any
success. If anything makes me believe in the Get Goldman Office it’s bread-making.
My son still has memories of me rage-baking: literally throwing a loaf of
failed bread out the kitchen door while I swore the worst swears in a string
without pause. He was probably about seven at the time. I remember him staring
at me, absolutely agape. He said, “Wow, Mom! Calm down!” I’m surprised he didn’t
say, “Calm the fuck down!” I’m hoping this time will be different, considering the
wellspring of Zen patience I’ve tapped into lately. The loaf is in the oven
now. It looks pretty, but it doesn’t smell great. Worst case, the squirrels
will enjoy it. I promise to quietly and gently toss it outside, instead of
hurling it with all my might.
Oh, you make me laugh. The worst swears... That poor loaf of bread. I sure as hell hope this one turned out good. Bread isnt a thing to make if you're short on on patience, that's for sure. Loved the postcard, got some art headed your way tomorrow. Take care and thanks for the chuckles.
