Laundry Day!

I. Hate. Laundry.

It's a bit ironic, actually; as a chore, laundry is probably the least intensive. You spend most of the time just waiting, biding time, while waiting for things to dry... And folding clothes takes like, what, 20 minutes? Max? And that's probably just because I'm a terrible clothes-folder.

Still, the very act of separating clothes, wobbling up and down the staircase with a full basket every hour, inevitably getting laundry gunk under my fingernails, and having my dog shed all over freshly-folded clothes (she likes to sneak and lay on them when I'm not looking) is just not my cup of tea. It's still better than washing dishes and scrubbing bathtubs, but honestly. Laundry. Ugh.

So, anyways, I was doing laundry today and I thought of a couple pretty funny little jokes about my current laundry habits that I mused might make cute little comic strips. I know I'm going to make at least two, but here's the first:

So, this isn't exactly how it happened, but the facts are this: my husband once had some shirts I wanted, they shrank, and now I wear them.

And, they did shrink because I really don't know how to run a washer properly.

In any case, I'm getting a lot better at making sure I don't completely miniaturize my husband's wardrobe, but I do have to admit: I've been buying smaller-sized shirts in the men's section lately. I'm not that much of a fashionista, and stuff made for guys is just way more comfortable. I really don't understand why--and I'll be honest... It may all just be in my head.

So! Is the comic cute? Do you want to see more? I'm tempted to do comics as a pretty common thing (though not too common, I don't know if I'm ready to start myself a webcomic yet), and they're really fun to do, so if you have any comments/suggestions I'd love to hear 'em.

Until next time... Cheerios with bananas!
