The Perils...of "Doing Your Own Damn Laundry"...The Conclusion

Last night, as I was finishing the last blog post, I remembered that I still needed to get the tempestuous laundry from the 4th Floor.

I trudged up to the laundry room and saw that my wet clothes had been put in my basket from by another tenant (Quite nicely, I might add.). As I heaved the basket to the dryer, I saw that there was a piece of paper stuck on the inside of my basket. I unfolded it and read, "You left valuables in the laundry. I didn't want to leave it here. 6K- Up all night."

And that's when I realized that I was listening to music before all this hulabaloo happened.....

Hence....I raced up to the 6th floor and retrieved the object I had mistakenly sent through the soap, suds, and spin cycle.

Surprisely, I figured my iTouch was gone for good, but after letting it dry on the radiator all night, I am now the owner of freshly laundered and cootie-free iTouch, albeit with a slightly waterlogged looking screen (but still touch-sensitive!).

The lessons learned from this are:

1. Doing your own laundry may be tedious, but it certainly is never boring.
2. Never do laundry when you not only ate Ditz Flakes for breakfast, but then consumed copious amounts of prescription medication to cure your swamp cold you acquired at Mardi Gras.
3. You can machine wash an iTouch.
