Laundry

I met Sam yesterday at Hiroko's cafe. Among other things he told me that in the apartment he rents they have a washer and a drier in the unit. It's a loft-like space he shares with two other people on Canal and Broadway. I was floored. If there was one thing I would wish for in my apartment it would be a washer. I wouldn't even need a drier (though it would be welcome if it were looking to come in from the cold). Lin tells me that there's a German front-loader that she wants to buy when she eventually buys one. It may be the Bosch. A front-loader, she tells me, is gentler on your clothes and consumes less water. The Bosch is especially designed to be more conservative since in Germany water and electricity costs more. "It's the Mercedes of washing machines," I believe she once said. Or words to that effect. I'm doing laundry now. Happy Martin Luther King day. Posted by eku at January 19, 2004 10:54 AM
