paragiraffe I love arugula.

My dream man…

Will provide me with my very own washer and dryer. Yes, I’m that easy.

One of the cons to my cozy little apartment is the lack of washer/dryer hookups, relegating me to trek my dirty clothes down to the “laundry facilities,” a fairly well-kept room of a dozen washers and about as many dryers. In its defense, I never have to wait for a machine like at my old apartment, but it’s not the same as being able to do laundry in the comfort of your own home. It’s a production involving detergent, baskets, my car, keys, walking, carrying, etc. And, when I have a load or two going and I’m back in my apartment, I’m always on edge as to what time I need to go back and cycle everything out. In a nutshell, it’s annoying.

I did six loads of laundry today and not much else. In between I watched Full House and played with Photoshop. I always feel like a college kid when I bring laundry home to my parents’, but this is why I do.

I have a washer and dryer in my apartment.

For this same reason, I wait until almost everything I own is dirty and then spend an entire day doing laundry. Stupid I know, but the laundromat is just not convenient.

This is why I disqualified a condo because I didn’t like the washer/dryer that was included (one of those rather useless combo units), and it didn’t have a hookup/space for a full-size unit (or even a stackable).

My laundry mat is right next door to me, but the machine hardly ever work. The bad thing abou the city I live in is that all but one of the apartment complexes don’t have W/D hookups for the dwellers. The one that does was built four months ago. I should have waited to move here.
