Consider this a retraction

Not 24 hours after I posted my grievance about a lack of summertime routine, M.H. started pulling out laundry baskets and sorting clothes by color.

"I'm not sure how it happened," he remarked, "but laundry day seems to have slipped from Wednesday to Thursday."

"Um, oh," I replied. "You've been doing laundry every Thursday?"

"Yeah."

Three-second pause for further reaction. "You probably shouldn't read my blog, then."
