I knew that getting married would require making some adjustments, but there are some things that I haven’t quite figured out yet. For example, how is it possible for three people to generate so much garbage when we have a garbage disposal? I must be throwing out a bag every day. I didn’t think we generated that much trash. Plus, there’s running the dishwasher almost every day. Though that has more to do with the very large dishes that Karen wanted. They’re nearly too big for the dishwasher (stacking it is a joy since the dishwasher has collapsible tines, which tend to collapse when three or more plate are on them) and nearly too big for the cabinet (the large plates have to be tilted to get them in and out). Minor stuff to be sure, but it all takes getting used to. And you figure after seven months of this, I would have some things down cold.
