Pic #2 - 1/2/12:
It's Sunday a holiday Monday, which means it's laundry day! I calculated that I do laundry approximately 48 times per year. At the laundromat next to my building, I spend between 4 and 8 dollars each laundry run. That's on average 24 quarters per trip. When I'm playing my best game, it takes me at least 75 minutes to wash, dry and fold.
A year in laundry by the numbers:
- 1,152 quarters inserted
- $288 dollars spent
- 3 large bottles of Tide emptied
- 96 dryer sheets dispensed
- 12 socks lost
- 3,600 minutes (60 hours, 2.5 days) consumed
- 2 marriage proposals received while waiting for dryers (neither accepted)
What's more mundane than laundry? Yet, I always feels accomplished, satisfied, and at peace after the last two socks are paired and put away.
