Allotment of Time (Congruence-Not)

My choices for entertainment this evening, after the family got bedded down, were numerous:

1. Watch the donks' convention
2. Break out the telescope and gaze at the Moon
3. Blog
4. Fix the kitchen chairs
5. Assemble the dresser for the baby's room
6. Re-organize the pantry
7. Fix the fridge's ice maker
8. Sit on the deck and drink copious quantities of rum

Number 1, watching the donks convention was right out, as I've heard it all before and I can't afford to break anything and the discharge of firearms is discouraged in this community.

Number 2 was out; while it's a rare clear night around here, it's also Garbage Night; so the hour I had for being outside got consumed with other endeavors.

Numbers 4, 5, 6, & 7 got shot down, as the rest of the family is sleeping and I shouldn't make any excessive noise.

Number 8 is not an option, as I can't in good conscience sit on my ass when there's so much yet to be done.

Fortunately; I found a happy alternative:  blog and drink copious quantities of rum
