I got a call from Zach when he got to the show tonight. When he was walking to the backstage entrance, Robert told him ‘it looks like those people are staring at you”. Zach looked up to see his Mom and Grandma standing there waving. 
I am not sure if they are coming over after the show, so I have been trying to clean. It is going pretty slowly, so I hope I get enough done I am not horrified. lol. Unfortunately, the dishwasher, which is a piece of crap so we never use, backed up into the sink and the floor, so it smells like farts and rotten eggs in here. eeeewwwwwwww. It is too hot to open the windows, so I hope the smell dissipates soon.
I am not killing myself to clean the place either. I don’t magically feel like wonderwoman just because somebody is coming over, and I am not going to act like her either. So, I hope to get it to the ‘not gross’ stage and call it good.
Back to work 
By the way, do you have a Livejournal account, so I could friend you?
lol, i had the same dishwasher problem except it was my garbage disposal that was backing into the dishwasher. we never used the dishwasher so one day i noticed this smell…eventually i found the smell and it was a new colony of organisms growing in the bottom if the dishwasher. it was pretty gross. my husby ended up ripping it out and putting it in the yard. it sat there until we took it to the recycle center the other day. but now we have a gap in our counter where the dishwasher was. funny, i never thought it was something that happend very often. i used fans and candles to get rid of the smell. good luck!
