$2.25
To do ONE (small) load of laundry. In my own apartment building.
And the worst part is, it's a buck just to whip the jeans in the dryer for fifteen before going out. You know, to give them that fitted look.
If any of you are wondering what to get me for Christmas, quarter rolls would be quite acceptable.

You should start hanging your clothes out on the line. Then you will be ghettofabulous hollywod style! There is nothing better than geting into a pair of jeans after not being in the dryer at all!! It is kinda like sleepning on a bunch of crumbled up crackers (saltines not ritz). I here you can go to chinatown and find some people that will do laundry really cheap!

if we gave you dime bags instead, you wouldn't care about dropping the $2.25 on laundry...
15 minutes in the dryer on a pair of jeans? how the heck does 15 minutes = dry? can you say chafing?

Ha. Dime bag. I prefer just doing the ol' pounder, it lasts longer.
No...the 15 minute fluff up. Like...if I have had the jeans on all day but I'm wearing them out, too. Gotta get them nice and a$$-fitting again, ya know?
The actual drying process is a buck and you get like 45 minutes. But you have to wash a small load or it doesn't get dry. Fun times, fun times.

Don't forget about the ol' balloon/quarter trick. I'm sending you a handicap sign for your car (hello, good parking!)and balloons for your W/D for Christmas and that's all you’re getting.

I am curious about the balloon/quarter trick because I saw something that involved those items at a strip club once. This reallly peaks my interest of how this works in the laundry room. If it is what I am thinking then I am never leaving the laundromat again! Please clarify this trick for me so I can get these evil thoughts out of my head.

Hmmm, I'm not too convinced that you really want to get those thoughts out of your head...and yes, it is what you're thinking.

Hmm, yeah, I've been told once or twice to get a blog and myspace account of my own. I think a ciaobella myspace might come sooner than I thought....until then, no balloon stories. Oh, and I will take credit for getting Jill to jump on the myspace bandwagon.
