Covered in Sheet
I thought this grad school application thing was annoying, but then I attempted to fold a fitted sheet. Can it even be done? I wrestled it and stretched it 79 different ways, but it still ended up a mass of lumpy sheet. Maybe if I punch and kick it. Vilolence is an effective form of linen control, correct?
Unrelated, but Pennsylvania needs to enact a no smoking law in bars NOW. I went to dinner yesterday at a resturant/bar and guest and I settled for smoking because we were mad hungry. I didn't notice the stench while I dined, thank goodness, but when I came home there was no escaping it-- I reeked. Like a cigarette ate too many cigarettes and vomited on me, with an extra barf load on my hair. Ick.
Get with the times, PA. You backward, hellhole of a state*.
*I also love PA because it has the most dairy farms (meaning cows!) in the U.S. Milk is the state drink. Moo!

I think we put too much of a premium on folding things.
"Like a cigarette ate too many cigarettes and vomited on me, with an extra barf load on my hair."
That's pretty damn funny.
And as someone who does the laundry (um... eventually), yeah, I don't think there's too much appreciable difference between a bunched up fitted sheet after a cat's been sleeping on it and the fitted sheet I've been swearing at (internally/externally, depending on mood and time of day) while trying to "fold" it.
so i'm thinking about all your blogs which make me laugh out loud constantly and i think about how you and i quote dane cook constantly and then i think about how lovely you will be as a nonfiction writer...but i wonder...could you ever write something for chicken soup for the soul?
and onto other topics...you could move to madison. wisconsin has many dairy farms and cows and madison has a no smoking law. as does california. and we all know happy cows come from california. screw you cali! cows are our claim to fame.
Look at all these comments! How fun. Thank you for the anti-folding support.
Mandakay-- I was just thinking today, no lie, that the only place I should be writing is in the Chicken Soup for the Soul books. I don't know if I can mention Dane Cook, though.
i think that if chicken soup had a "chicken soup for the PG/PG13/R/non enlightened soul" that you would do just fine...you and dane cook, first two entries for sure.
