Raising a Nerdling

Today is Friday! A nice weekend up ahead, picking up Miles, having some adventures, the usual. Problem is, the house is a mess. Like, mid organizational mess. I reorganized my corner area to make my dream shelf (more on that when it's finished!) Boyfriend was supposed to clean his corner, so we could put a bookshelf over there, but that hasn't happened. So my stuff is all over the place in the living room until we can move the shelf. Hopefully he'll do that today. I'm determined to get our tiny little apartment under control. Boyfriend has too much stuff that's all over the place. Gotta get it under control! One day, one day. We have a shelf, 3 DVD racks to hang up on the wall, in addition to the bookshelf already over there. I hope that it'll eventually come to fruition. I'm getting a wee bit on the frustrated side with all of this. But basically, that means that it'll be an out of the house weekend, which is long overdue. Today we're going to d...

They raised the prices by a quarter at my laundromat. RUDE.  Also, I did not have a pleasant laundromat experience last night, and I am sad. There was a gentlemen there, who may have been on some sort of drugs, talking on speaker phone with his mother and she was just yelling at him the whole time, all while he was dropping everything he owned over and over again. I'm glad he was able to find a safe space to be during that time, as I never want to see somebody struggling somewhere unsafe, but still. It was only him and I, and the young attendant. So, I found a little spot by my laundry machines, and hung out there. I also put too much detergent in one of my laundry machines and had to run it a second time, so I didn't have enough quarters to properly dry everything, because of the price raise and my screw up, so towels will have to dry alone in the bathroom. Sorry towels. The worst part is, I was planning on perfectly cleaning the towels, making them all super fluffy and ...

Hello friends, and look at this, take 256 at blogging. Something that always irks me is this whole thing that the laundromat absolutely sucks, that it has to be a nasty chore. Okay, maybe I'm slightly spoiled because I do my laundry in the middle of Woodstock. (shout out to Woodstock Laundry, y'all awesome) Another thing that is a plus is my son is obsessed with doing laundry and the laundromat. Lots of flat elevated surfaces that are warm are apparently an ideal Hot Wheel race track. My laundromat is average. Coin operated, clean, a little pricy, very friendly staff. They have 3 different size washing machines. One is a micro machine. They say it's for one load of laundry, but I don't know what that even looks like. Who does just one load of laundry? That one costs 13 quarters. Then they have Mr. 21. That is my goal. To bring enough laundry to just fill him up, no more no less. There are like, 6 of these machines. I don't know about the front 5 for the longest ti...
