1. How often do you do laundry?
Only when absolutely necessary. It's usually when I'm out of something, like underwear or socks. Marcus is ususally more inclined to do laundry more often. He ususally does it about once a week. How cool is that?

2. What's in a typical wash load?
We separate everything. There is usually do a load of lights, a load of darks and a load of towels.

3. Front or top loader? Powder or liquid detergent?
I've got a Sears Kenmore top loading washer and use Gain powder with bleach (Marcus' detergent preference).

4. Do you use fabric softener in the rinse cycle?
Nope. We do use unscented Bounce dryer sheets. I'm allergic to anything scented.

5. Dryer or clothesline?
We have a matching Sears Kenmore dryer. I hate drying clothes on a line. Too much work.

Guess what I got in the mail today? Stuff from CollegeAmerica informing me of the upcoming graduation ceremony IN TWO WEEKS! Does the phrase "advanced notice" mean anything to these people? Guess not.

There is a "Son of the Beach" marathon tonight on FX channel. That show is a hoot! It's so stupid that it's funny.

Actually, it's my blog's anniversary. One year ago today I started this nonsense. I didn't think I'd stick with it that long, but here it is.

Oh, I almost forgot something I wanted to mention:

DENVER IS NOT ON FIRE!!

I'm so sick of the national news making it seem like the whole city is burning. This map shows where the fire is. It's not even burning any part of the Denver Metro area. There have been recent fires a lot closer than this one. Yes, it's the largest fire in recorded state history. Yes, it's a terrible tragedy that was caused by dumbasses. Yes, this is going to cause many problems in the future. No, there's not more that the firefighters can do than they're already doing. Get a grip, people. Not only do I want to string the person(s) responsible for this up by the thumbs, I'd like to do the same to journalists who need to sensationalize stories rather than simply reporting facts.
