On the back of the door there's a medium sized whiteboard hanging, with subdivisions drawn in Trowa's neat hand. Most of the writing is in Cathy's purposeful but rather sloppier style, though. On the right hand side is the circus schedule for the next couple of days along with any major events (such as friends visiting for dinner), on the left is a list of things that need to be accomplished. In the middle subdivision there is, in marker that has been there long enough to have all but dried completely to the board, a list
Rules of this household:
1) No blowing yourself up!!
2) Eat what is put in front of you
3) Keep your clothes neat (pick up your socks)!
4) Leave a note. Always leave a note. Yes, Trowa, even if you’re going
to go save everyone you have time for a NOTE. I have time for notes when
I ’m in a rush!
5) Give sufficient warning if guests are coming over for dinner
(that Lucille is a nice girl, Trowa)
[In a neater hand] 6) Wait for me or Sven if you're going somewhere we haven't agreed is safe. Don't go alone.
7) At least pretend you’re following the laws of wherever we’re staying?
I promise I’ll be more careful with obtaining fire permits.
a) Unless the laws are stupid
[nearly illegible from irritation] b) Or the officials call you a “little lady” and leer at you.
8) Share ideas for new acts with other member of household first.
No “surprise acts,” Trowa!
a) A corollary: Tell me when my ideas are utterly stupid, bozo.
I can’t believe how much of a fool Ms. Weaton made me feel last month.
