Downy Whore
Yesterday, I bought that super special of all Downy dryers sheets. The lavender-vanilla fancy kind. I bought it on sale because I would never buy that kind of thing regular price.
I have no idea why. I can buy a quilt that cost more than my craigslist bed but I refuse to pay the extra 35 cents for super special Downy.
I used this super special Downy. I washed all the laundry in the land.
And it is indeed special.
It is now a fact that I am sunk. I love it. I love love love it I can never go back. Downy has me by the ovaries. Damn them.

Have you tried the All Spring Rain detergent??
OMG! So fresh & pretty smelling.
Joe doesn’t like me to use it on his clothes though, cause all the other cops keep smelling him.

Cat, I will totally be trying that Spring Rain out next time I buy detergent.
I don’t mind cops smelling me, except my ex perhaps.

My true love and I both have deathly allergies (as in hospital-breathhing-machine-quality allergies) to all perfumes, in fact to pretty much any fragrance not found naturally occurring in our pantry or spice rack, but I’m happy for you. Anyway, I think it is probably far better to be a downy whore than a stubbly one.

Oh… must get some of that stuff now. Especially if it makes me want to do all the laundry in all the land.
It MUST have secret powers to get someone to want to do THAT. heehee

Have a great New Years!

This is hilarious. I am weirdly cheap about things too. It is amazing what can cause me to foam at the mouth upon viewing the price and what I will just obliviously pitch out for.

Ah, April-freshness! I love stuff like that. Unfortunately, I can’t breathe it. And I can’t have it next to my skin. The only fabric softener I can use is the Bounce sheets with the “smell-level” of 1 or less. But I used to love it to pieces. Before my body started falling to pieces…
