Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Makes me wonder how many men actually inquire about getting breast implants. You know, so they never have to leave the house again.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Reminds me of the News of the Weird guy who tried to crucify himself - and only figured out the flaw in his plan once he'd nailed down the first hand.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Are you going to be free at all on Sunday?

I will know after I get back from the centre tonight, Perkins. You'll still be around, eh?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I'll be here, ita. I don't leave until about 10 tomorrow.

Cool.

I just got dressed down for moving the woman's laundry from inside the washer to on top of the washer. Apparently her etiquette is that it's okay to leave the wet stuff in the washer until a dryer's available. Which strikes me as a little insane. And what I should have done was move her stuff into an empty dryer, which is still not sensical in my book.

Which is why I leave my laundry basket on top of the unit I'm using, should anyone need to empty it to keep on working. She didn't.

She asked how I'd feel if she'd done that to me -- I told her I wouldn't have minded, and she was a bit huffy when she said "I mind ... don't do it to me." I should have memorised her laundry when I had the chance.

I still think my way makes more sense. Not enough more sense to run around antagonising my new neighbours, but -- too late.

Maybe they should post rules.

If my laundry is taking up space in a machine (washer or dryer) that someone else could be using, I think my laundry is being inconsiderate and should not complain about being moved. I also don't think it gets to dictate where to be moved, though if there were a basket there, that'd be nice. People need to tend to their laundry. Otherwise, don't complain about other people having to.

That's how I feel. And it's not just because I like ita better than the huffy lady. Possibly I also have unresolved issues from the college laundry room.

People get weird about laundry.

Now tagless for your comfort.

she was a bit huffy when she said "I mind ... don't do it to me.

If she's such a freak about her laundry, mayhap she should park her ass in the laundry room until it's finished. IJS.

This is what I'm saying.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I'll generally leave about five minutes after a machine is done, but if the laundry owner doesn't collect it by then, I see no problem with moving it. I wouldn't mind if someone moved mine.
