laundry day

May 24, 2008

Ok, so I’m sitting in a laundry severely disappointed because I was planning to use the wifi which is free at this Laundromat, except that is isn’t working at all, a Black and white TV in the corner blares out a commercial for the latest Indiana Jones movie-which I’m hoping to catch at its last Saturday showing assuming I can stay awake, I’ve been sick lately and missed work last Friday because I felt like every cell in my body had diarrhea, I had a headache of such epic proportions the cat purposefully meowed in the mournful meow that cats like to do to show their extreme displeasure, my ears have been leaking a toxic fluid whose noxious fumes are melting the paint on the ceiling directly above me, the neighbor who I suspected was one of those aliens from the movie series moved out after he accidentally encountered some of the fluid (it is a very long story that involves a q-tip, a rubber band, and the paranoid delusions of righteous man), I was planning on my biweekly laundry chore last weekend but because I was sick and had to work late every day last week, I was unable to do so and I came up directly against my absolute limit on boxers and undershirts, I had 3 days of socks available to me in the event the soaking rain that I missed because of my location in the void of stimulation building prevented me from enjoying the visual stimulation of the rainfall, there has been a drought, and much dust-it is a strange thing to walk outside for lunch to see the wet pavement, cloudy skies and the rain fresh smell, at one point yesterday the moisture in the air was so overwhelming that the smell even reached the closed environment and I ventured outside for a drenching walk, a baptism of liquid joy so to speak. My laundry is almost dry, I must end this session.
