...and now, turning to the weather, we appear to have a severe boring front blowing through
Sorry Tornadia.
Only slightly cloudy warmth projected in the five day forecast.
Your season, she will come. Oh, she will come.
Do you know that in NY, most people give their laundry over to be cleaned? i was very suspicious and skeptical at first -- "What a thoughtless waste of money! How very Sex in the City!" i thought, turning my nose up at the mere thought of such squandering. but nooooo, friends! this has proven to be not the case. with the amount of time you have left for yourself after slogging yerself to and fro work, and to and fro errands and the like, living, sleeping, working, and moving about in cramped spaces, climbing up and down endless stairs to rocket through the bowels of the city, walking a few doors down to give your skivvies over to a stranger, and returning later to recieve them packed tightly into a bag amidst your other now clean and freshly fabric softened, carefully folded items is a darn near necessary bit of ease that is way worth the ten dolla (and i have LOTS of laundry) saved on coin machines, time, and effort. Little secret is to not have em separate colors. That'll totally getcha in the wallet.

We have windiness. Whoooeeee, windiness. But it's just garden-variety wind, not a shear or cyclonic vortex. Which is fine, becaue I'm too busy today to be distracted by the Doppler anyway.
Although I can do without the slogging and crowds and whatnot, this is DEFINITELY a bit of New York we need to adopt here. I've been putting off going to the laundromat for about three weeks. Once I get there it's fine, but lord how I hate hauling everything up and down the stairs, and coming home with a load full of semi-wet clothes that I don't want to tumble dry, and then spreading them one every surface in my house. And sheets! I love clean sheets, but I hate folding them at the laundromat because they always drag on the floor while I'm hoisting the corners as high as I can, and then I end up bringing weird lint from other people's laundry INTO MY BED. That's disturbing, if you really start thinking about it.
I'm all cranky just thinking about it.
i hear ya sista.
and now, as tornadia, you can use your powers to keep the edges from touching the ground and taking things you would not choose to take to bed with you in yer bed. no need to be cranky!
oh, to have forces.
