Household appliances make me ridiculously happy.

I got a countertop dishwasher off CraigsList a couple of weeks ago for $100. Dishes have always been my least-favorite household chore, so I would let them sit in the sink and then they got really nasty which made it even less fun. But now I have sparkly glasses and silverware that isn't sticky, I can regularly see the bottom of my sink, and all without having to actually touch any grossness. I had to replace some light bulbs today so I even popped the globes into there - who knows how many years of crud came off but it's a lot brighter in my kitchen and bedroom now. I even did a little dance in my kitchen today to the rhythm of the wash cycle - while Pepper stared at me like I was insane.

Then I cleaned her litterbox, swept out her cage, and then let the Roomba deal with all the little crumbly bits while I went into the other room and read my mail. Not only do I not have to breathe in all the little dust-flecks, but it even sings a happy little song when it's done.

Yeah, I'm a dork, but a dork with a clean kitchen!

well, john and Pen both said they could bring card table and chairs, but all teh games live at your house and you didn't know if you were interested in doing something.

I'll be there. What game should I bring?

OK Pick any 3 - a board, a card, and a something of your choice.
