Ugh, I’m so annoyed. I have been less than enthralled with our new apartment’s laundry facilities. Somehow my standards are too high - I think that a regular load of laundry should be able to dry sufficiently in 45-50 minutes for a dollar. Our dryers seem to think differently. Bastards.

I’ve been doing laundry pretty much non-stop since I’ve gotten home - which makes me sound a lot more virtuous and homemaker-y than I really am. Matthew and I are headed out to Virginia this weekend and I wanted to do a load of diaper laundry and a load of my own laundry before I left. I do two washes for diaper laundry (cold rinse, hot wash), and apparently have to always do two (and in the case of my clothes, three, but I balked at the third because I was tired of spending money) cycles of dry to get the diapers dry. Right now half of the load of my clothes laundry is hanging on hangers out on our deck. The other half is still slightly damp but it’s just t-shirts and I don’t really care too much if they are damp.

Wow, I just spent entirely too much time talking about LAUNDRY. Gah.
