a love affair with laundry

AND NOW!!!
IT'S TIME FOR...
WORDS THAT MAKE ME GIGGLE

-vestibule
-nubbin
-coinage
-refurbish
(always makes me think of furbies, which inevitably results in what can only be described as a horrified chortle)


well that was fun.


I realized recently that one of the many reasons i like being awake at night is the total freedom from obligations. No one expects you to call them, or pick up your phone, at 2 AM. No stores are open, which means errands can't be run. Offices are closed, bossess are asleep. Even friends are sleeping.

Well i'm getting ready for Burning Man (note: scroll down for sweeeet pictures) and here are some of the things i've bought:


Glow leis: To wear at night for safety and awesomeness (how often can you say that?) and for gifting













A happy pink flower umbrella because i hear it gets sunny in the desert


















Oh and you gotta have a costume or two!


Plus my roommate made me an AWESOME costume, a corset-dress thingy out of a pillowcase and two curtains from Savers. RAD.

Anyway gotta go buy a tent today, and an air mattress. This trip is super expensive (thank god i got the scholarship ticket!!!)* although I'm fucking psyched my computer can fit in my Camelback!! Wow, look at me, my trendy hip Apple laptop in my brand-new purple Camelback! BONUS POINTS: I am wearing a tye-dye skirt
AND THE WIN: I have a big-ass yin-yang tattoo all up my back.
DING DING DING! I'm from Boulder!

...
LOVE it.


AND as part of my preparation for Burning Man, I haven't showered in three days! RAD.

THIS IS HOW I THINK:
i may have just spent $15o on hats, but i figure i save about two dollars a month by not using dryer sheets so i'm pretty much even.
honestly, why do we even NEED dryer sheets? ooohh, static cliiiing. MY ONLY WEAKNESS!

MORE THOUGHTS ON DRYERS
in my new house there is an option on the dryer that is "no heat." which i don't understand because a no-heat drying is like...a crime against laundry. because pretty much the whole point of laundry is to take everything out of the dryer when it's all warm... and hugging it tightly and breathing in the smell of laundry as the lovely warmth encompasses you slowly, gently...

ahem.


ANOTHER ALLCAPS CAPTION
well that was fun.
