2592Craft night with sineater at my house

Oct. 21, 2004

 

 

sineater wanted to come over and sew a saddle pad for Jessie, so we had
talked about it last week & turns out tonight was a good night for
both of us.

I finished my batty polarfleece muffincap & put ties on a pair of
green velvet wrap pants while sineater drew up his pattern. He was almost
done, when craft night was curtailed by a phone call from UB.

Apparently since they've been gone to SCA events every weekend for 6
weeks, they havent' cleaned house in at least that long, and the
house is filthy. I guess UB went to the kitchen to do something and
found bugs in the sink.

So she called the house, & Sweetie answered the phone (Sweetie said she
didn't sound upset at all when she talked to him), and then when sineater
got on the line she told him he had to come home and deal with the
bugs. THen he started to pack up, and then called her back at which
point she had worked herself up & was yelling so loud I could hear
her from where I was standing.

Now, why 3 people can live in a house and only sineater has the
capability to wash dishes and spray bugs, I do not know. But he
immediately switched from 'regular sineater' mode to this very calm,
soft spoken, whipped little nothing of a yes dear, and off he went.
It rather sucked.

Oh well. I did good and did not say anything critical to sineater, and I
won't say anything critical to UB. Just let them know I'm sad it
didn't work out & he didn't get to stay longer.
