well, yet again i really don't care about a title. i think that the title is too darn constricting. it's like a jock strap, you should only use it when you really need it. yesterday my girlfriend, sara, and i decided it'd be a great idea to wash the feather bed. for those of you who have done this two things will come to mind: how you wash it and how you dry it. these didn't really pop into our heads. we thought laundromat but they were all closed. then we though washing machine at home but when we'd stuffed all we could stuff it looked like an airbag had gone off in a space capsule. but, at the end of a long day of searching for a laundromat open past 8:30 (and then, after a short time, 9:00p), we gave up and went with the next best thing...pedal aggitation. and we're not talking about kicking any kids asses into gear here, moms, we're talking about what i like to call the new revolution in home washing!*
*may not be new. also, i may not call it anything other than good cleaning fun.

i've never seen anybody washing the feather bed, or anything for that matter, as excited as you look!

haha, i'm just waiting for geezer to see it!
but it's great fun, chloe, and hails back to images of bacchan festivals i saw in latin.
and ms. greeper, it's very fun and not expensive. plus, you can make a game of it like sara and i did, lol. that was here behind the camera laughing at me and staying dry and warm. plus, you could always take a quick daytrip down here and we could have a washing party, haha!

ah, takes me back to travelling and washing all my clothes in the shower, drying them in the not-so-dry bathroom, then smelling mouldy for a week... hope yours came out fresher than that!

it's going pretty well. it's still drying but that's just because there are a lot of feathers, lol.
and i know the feeling. when i go backpacking i have two changes of clothes and they end up smelling bad by the end.
i totally just hatched a plot to go backpack from the oregon border to the canadian border on this trail that runs from mexico to canada. i might try the whole trail in the spring of '07.

gus:You can get a feather-down comforter dry cleaned for about $20 US around here.
White Hype:was it necessary to remove all your clothes to clean this thing? Impressive leg-hair.

probably not but it made sense at the time. as did washing a feather bed like a grape-crusher at a vintner in the bathtub...in retrospect they're just funny and illogical. but it did work really well, actually.
and thank you, it's the most commented on body part on me. i'll say that i had hoped for better but i'll take it.

I could talk about your tummy mane, and your washboard stomach, and the broad, sweeping side-burns, and your sizeable teeth. The ears are large and round, and your hair is on top of your head.
Difficult to talk about the eyes without letting the word "squinty" enter into the conversation, however.

So how'd you dry it??
By

I woulda just aired it out, myself.

safet- yeah, but you focus on those chicken legs, eh?
and chop, shame on you for leaving my comments to bereft these past weeks must have been something to do with the man issues
keri, we laid it out and flipped it every couple of hours for a few days. we tried the drier first because it fit but it was far too wet for such drying.
and maja, i had an uncontrollable bladder spill which is why it ended up needing the washing. evidently the bladder is associated with shame...so maybe it's a good thing i haven't done more like that one.
