Computerized Dryer

"Computerized (1960's style) Dryer" (sounds like a good name for a band. "Eagle eye lion...band name...I call it" Andy on 'Parks and Recreation'.)

The laudro-mat can also be considered recreation as Steve and I recently found out this weekend while we washed, inspected for stains, (washed again) and dried the tablecloths from the wedding this Saturday. I am a wedding coordinator at our (huge) church and it's up to me to get all the sacred cloths cleaned. They aren't sacred because they're religious, but because they dissapear frequently and are hard to keep track of with all the uses they get around the (huge) building. It's so huge that my feet and legs are burning and aching after several hours of walking back and forth...this would be another good excuse for me to start exercising...hmmm, or perhaps a good excuse to get a massage...yeah...a massage! I like that one much better! Thanks to Steve though, for all his help! I would be a mess without him!

It was my first trip to a landry mat, washateria, wash-n-dry, and it didn't dissapoint! No way, not with these fancy Speed Queen (another good band name?) logos to keep us entertained, 80 quarters with designs to sort through and a good crossword book at hand!

We also found it unusual that the facilities were almost empty on a Sunday afternoon. It was just the two of us and an older lady who was puffing on her cigarette outside. It was a pretty clean place and not creepy at all like I expected, but the best part was that we were completely finished with all 14 tablecloths and 6 table skirts in about 2 1/2 hours! Much better than the 2 DAYS it took us at our house don't ya think?! However, by about 5:30 hoards of people with dirty clothes packed into the now-cramped and over-used isles!
All in all, a sucess and a pretty fun outing! I encourage you to use up those extra quarters someday by visiting the local laundromat! :)
