Change of Plans
Ben and I planned on going camping with his parents this weekend. However, we canceled the trip due to rain. So, instead of spending Saturday hiking in the great outdoors, Ben and I sat on the couch the whole evening and finished watching episodes of Season 2 of The Office. (I got the set at the library, so we only had 1 week to get through an entire season.)
As always, there were some incredibly funny moments:
Creed forgetting to get Jim a present for the Secret Santa party and instead pulling an old shirt out of his closet and throwing it in a bag.
"Jim Halpert: He clearly forgot to get me something, so he went into the closet, dug out this little number, and threw it in a bag.
[cut to Creed]
Creed: Yep. That's exactly what happened."
The entire Injury episode
Dwight trying to put out the fire "The Fire."
And as true to The Office some incredibly awkward moments as well:
The rest of the Christmas/Secret Santa Episode
Michael Scott: So Phyllis is basically saying, 'Hey Michael, I know you did a lot to help the office this year, but I only care about you and oven mitt''s-worth.' I gave Ryan an iPod!
Michael's speech at the salesman convention (especially the deleted scenes. That was pure torture).
Michael acting like a baby on his birthday.
Michael Scott: Somebody got donuts for my birthday!
Toby: Happy birthday!
Michael Scott: You didn't know it was my birthday.
Toby: I guess I forgot.
Michael Scott: Well I guess I forgot to give you a donut.
Toby: You're serious?
Michael Scott: Mmm.
And of course, I loved any storyline that centered around the Jim and Pam romance!
Season 5 starts on the 25th! I cannot wait!

Cling Free!
I've always used the fabric softener sheets in my dryer to prevent that horrible static cling. Over the years, I read e-mails about how they can interfere with heat sensors, or coat the lint filter and make the dryer work less effectively. They can also coat the clothes with harmful chemicals.
Although I realized the problems they cause, I did not know of an alternative. Not using them was not an option....the thought of peeling my clothes apart after each load made my hair stand up on end!
I read about the As Seen on TV dryer balls, but mom tried them and said they only worked part of the time. I also read about using a ball of aluminum foil, putting a bit conditioner on a washcloth and throwing that in (someone said the conditioner got all over their clothes), and throwing in a plain dry washcloth. Plain dry washcloth....that seemed easy enough, so I thought I would give it a shot.
It works really well!
I use a plain white washcloth for my white loads. The white washcloth left little fuzzies in my dark load, (you were right about that, mom) so I found a dark blue washcloth for them.
I don't know why it works...if someone does, let me know. My bath towels are not quite as fluffy as when I use a dryer sheet. However, my clothes are soft and do not stick together at all! Plus, I save on the cost of the dryer sheets too!
