Day 12!

Feb 14, 2010 17:14

Back to whatever tickles my fancy.  I want to share something: I am a closet 1950s housewife.  Well, not everything about a stereotypical 1950s housewife, but close enough.  Let's go reason by reason.

I started cooking last year and LOVE it.  I am a bit too in love with protocols, so I'm not so good at deviating from recipes, but I'm working on it.  I really don't have time to cook every night, but once or twice a week I'll make a truckload of food and we'll eat it for the next week.  It doesn't hurt that Curt pays for the food and I get to do fun stuff with it -- enter 1950s housewife again.  Yesterday for Valentine's Day (yes, I realize it's today, but I was supposed to be busy all day and just got lucky that one meeting was cancelled, hence the entries now) I made an entirely pink meal, which even I find a totally nauseating concept, but I don't care.

My uterus aches a little at the sight of small children.

I also enjoy laundry.  That probably has a lot to do with my obsession with being warm and the fact that doing laundry means you can immediately curl up in a sweater fresh out of the drier.  Folding things is fun too.  Maybe another day I'll tell you about how I put my closet in R-O-Y-G-B-I-V-black-gray-white order.  Actually, I guess I just did.

I like dressing up.

I actually find cleaning things (other than floors. I hate floors.) quite satisfying.

I find I all of this fairly surprising coming from me, and disconcerting -- but I think there's a silver lining: if getting an MD/PhD doesn't work out, I can always work for Merry Maids!
