What college life does not prepare you for....

G-Man is on Spring break this week...


At home...


He cannot afford to go on a lavish spring break getaway...


And I cannot afford to send him on one.....


So he is stuck hanging out in his home town with his hometown friends....


Which he seems to thoroughly enjoy...


So I guess it is a getaway of sorts...


Away from eating college cafeteria food...


And doing his own laundry...


Jesus Christ, the kid has a lot of laundry....


I know he did it once this week already...


But he still brought home at least 4 loads...


Not counting bedding....


How can any one person wear that many clothes or use that many towels in a few day span?????


And then not understand why he (or better yet, for him, I) cannot get it all done within a couple hours after he throws it into the laundry room....


This is not college pal...


Mom only has one washer and one dryer....


And when you ram everything into that one washer...


It rebels...


And tries to walk across the basement floor....


Looking for the nearest exit...


Spewing water and suds every time it bounces the lid open.....


Yeah, in the real world, laundry takes a little while....


Deal with it....


Or....


There is that laundry mat up the road with 55 washers and dryers....


Of course there you get to sit and twiddle your thumbs while waiting....


And then when you drop the basket of clean clothes in the puddle on the way out....


Because your room is not just down the hall like it is at school...


You get to start all over....
