trade-off

me:  'my clothes [in the clothesline] got wet when it rained...  they were already almost dry...'

sister:  'where were you?  why didn't you bring them in?'

me:  'i was here [at parents' house]...'

sister:  'why didn't you go home?  it's so near...'

me:  'i was supposed to but then the kalyeserye started...  it was alden's birthday so i watched...'

sister:  'that's the price you pay...'

me:  'yeah...  small price to pay...  the clothes will dry again...'

my joy in seeing alden's birthday real time instead of just in youtube far outweighs my dismay at having wet clothes...  worth it for me...  ; )
