Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I air dry stuff that I read the label and it said to air dry them.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I currently dry more in order to get pet hair off things.

I feel that. Our washer also has the option of an extra rinse cycle, so sometimes I use the extra rinse if a load seems extra hairy (or extra dirty).

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I don't line dry anything. My dryer has a little shelf I can put in it to dry stuff that is supposed to lay flat, everything else tumbles dry, bras included. I have tried hanging stuff to dry on a rack and find it impractical. Have not noticed any shrinking or other damage.

My "red" loads include purple and sometimes yellow (if it's a bright yellow. I don't know, it seems to work out okay)

Fleece is never gonna shrink, Tep. It will melt before it shrinks. OTOH, it should not absorb much water and should dry quickly on its own.

Stay safe Texas.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

The only things I put in the dryer are socks, towels, and sheets. Everything else goes on racks in the house.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I do laundry about once every three weeks. I'll do three or four loads--whites go together and get hot water, greys go in another washer and blacks in a third, both set for warm wash and cold rinse. Colors get added to the grey or black washer. Everything goes in the dryer unless the label says line-dry.

ION, I had a dentist appointment at 8:00 AM today that I missed because I set my alarm for 7:15 PM. So now I go in next week.

Fleece is never gonna shrink, Tep.

Yeah, I've grudgingly accepted that. At least now that it's summer, I can ignore my fleece for months.

Why am I in such a bad mood? I mean, besides the fact that I overslept and today is my first day back at work after a four-day weekend?

I am editing a paper that talks about Programmed Death Ligand.

That's metal as hell.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

The hike yesterday was great! Just about 4 miles or so, 2 miles in and 2 miles back, but Isaac was tired by the end. That boy needs to move a bit more. We finally set up the basketball hoop in the backyard, which helps in that regard as he likes to go out and practice his shot.

I was to just veg out today but somehow wound up on the list to volunteer for the teacher appreciation lunch, so I need to go to Franny's school today.

When do students start their summer vacation these days? For us it was usually around Memorial Day or a few days after.
