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:
- Doing your own laundry may be tedious, but it certainly is never boring.
- 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.
- You can machine wash an iTouch.
