I really do. I would have so much less stress each week. There are quite a few laundromats around Chicago-just as many as I remember being in NYC but I just can't bear the thought of killing two hours of time in one every week. At least it being in the basement, I can haul it down there and come back up. But yeah...and I'm totally unmotivated. Cinchel and I play this laundry game sometimes where whoever finds the most money in pockets wins. It helps us get through checking all of the pockets alot faster. Well, it's 1:30 and I'm rambling. Best to go to sleep now. I really need to get an in unit washing machine and dryer. I really do. I would have so much less stress each week.

Like you, though, I absolutely hate doing laundry, so I just get it dropped off (I wouldn't do that if I had access to it in my building, though).

After the laundry debacle and the incessant playing of Inara George I am sure I am hereby out of their good graces. Ah well. At least I got a shower. And I even feel clean No, really.

That stinks. I think I just needed to vent. I really hate laundry. But, you know, I hate smelling even more. So I do my laundry. It's possible you could get away with not doing laundry and not smelling too. But for me I gotta play it safe. lol on the nytimes.

(coupled with a recent cover story on women who opt for babies soon after graduating kollege, i began to get a real nytimes-is-a-mens-paper vibe.) anyway, i've always believed that 'cleanliness is overrated'. take care. why not bring your clothes to a neighboring bldg, mayber more conscientious folks? bad joke – i wish my apt bldg had laundry machines (i gotta shlep the stuff 2 blocks). anyway, a recent thur ny times had this story about a former columbia univ prof who writes of her love of doing laundry.
