My motivation to do laundry is seriously down the drain...

It's amazing what will totally reduce my motivation to do laundry: the laundry machines on the third floor cost $1.75 in quarters for each load in the washer / dryer. The ones on the second floor cost $1.25 for each load in the washer / dryer, but I prefer to use the machines that take a loonie and a quarter. (I'm not an arcade machine... I don't have a squillion spare quarters lying around, and my coin collection is normally off-limits!) Ah well, maybe in a while when that washer finishes its cycle...
