I decided today that I needed to combine both my personal blog and my photography blog. There was no way for me to keep up with the two! As a result I’ll tell you a little bit about my day at the laundromat. We have always been spoiled and had a washer and dryer in the apartments that we have lived in…until now. (I hope we find a used set soon) As a result I packed my baskets of laundry and quarters to head to the first laundromat I could find that had Wi-Fi. Here’s my list of pros and cons for the laundromat.
Pros:
-colored chairs
-bigger washers and dryers that do the load in half the time
-the vending machine that gave me a free water
-fun colored machines
-pinball and pac-man
-fun things to photograph (while people looked at me like I’m a psycho)
-nice owner man who opened the door for me when I was carrying in my 4
(yes, you read that right….FOUR) loads of laundry
-awesome laundry carts on wheels
Cons:
-paying to do laundry
-the college kid that tried to steal my clothes!!!
The story: I was sitting between two rows of washers using my computer while I was watching a
creativeLIVE workshop. I specifically chose to sit there so I could watch my clothes that were in the dryer. All of a sudden some college kid opens my dryer and starts putting my clothes in his basket. I approached him and asked him if he was grabbing clothes from the right dyer. Needless to say we had a little banter about who was the owner of the clothes until I picked up a very girly t-shirt. At that point he dropped the laundry basket and ran out the door. What the?!?! Some people.
Despite my crazy experience I think I’ll go back again.
Ryan - Love it!! the textures are amazing and I think you nailed the DOF. I really like the "interaction" between the sand and the seaweed(?)
Christy - Nice post. Elantris is a good book. We have it if you want to borrow it.
