Me: "I wonder why the dishes always pile up around here." **an hour later** Me: "I was about to wash the crayon wax out of the cupcake pan my wife used for a 'Which things will melt?' experiment at the homeschool co-op, when I noticed that the sick three-year-old had fallen asleep and spilled his Gatorade. So I spent the time shampooing the couch instead."
