Doing Laundry in Public is Awkward

After coming home, of course I had a lot of laundry to do. I have a very nice mother who will spend the day at a local place separating clothes with me. However... I always find it a little awkward going into these public clothes washing facilities.

For one, everyone--including me-- always wear the clothes they clearly don't care about. This way it won't matter if they miss the washing experience.

Then there's always that man who hits on everyone. Hey, I give you credit, older gentleman. It's a good idea. Hit on women when you're cleaning. It makes you look like you give a fuck about how you look.

Here's why that fails:

I don't think anyone wants to be hit on when their dirty unmentionables are out on a table. DONE

Also, people are having the most awkward conversations. I don't really want to know that your angry ex husband just got out of jail and could walk in any minute. I don't want to consider all the ways I could dodge bullets in my laundry clothes.

Yeah, doing laundry is pretty awkward. If you have machines at home consider yourself lucky.
