Drowning in dishes
Storyboard Text
- "On my first night, the dishes piled up after the dinner rush: plates, silverware, cups and oily black deep-dish pans, which came clean only with a lot of soap and scrubbing in steaming- hot water. I couldn’t keep up, and stacks of dishes formed on all sides of me."
- I ended up getting into B.U., with a scholarship, but I still had never even visited Boston. Though my mom worked hard to take care of my siblings and me, there just was no room in the budget to send me on a college visit.

- Jeff surprised me with an early graduation present: a trip to Boston. He paid for the hotel, the car and the plane tickets. We toured campus and visited Fenway Park and did some sightseeing around New England.
- "I asked Jeff when I could do something different. “Do you know why you’re still doing dishes?” he asked. “Because you keep complaining about it.” Nobody likes to work with a complainer, he said. But, he promised, if I continued to leave a clean station and not complain, next week he would put me on the “make table,” where pizzas were assembled"
