Laundry incident
May. 28th, 2004 03:49 pmAd Mundo Exteriore,
::fuming:: Some chit of a girl decided to take out my clothes from the washer, so she could use it next. Now, I will begrudgingly forgive that, because I've done it myself a couple of times. But I've always put the clothes on paper towels to make sure the clean clothes stayed clean. This girl put my clothes on top of the washer, where there was a nice pool of blue detergent (college students are naturally messy). Now I have to wash one of my pants again. I, being my usual meek, nonconfrontational self, didn't say anything, but as I stalked upstairs from the basement, I felt that I should have at least asked her to give me two dollars in quarters for the extra laundry load that she so inconsiderately caused. Argh! I'm this close to cursing out loud.
Sorry, I'm that weird sort of neat freak who is lazy enough to let her room get into a mess every now and then, but becomes extremely anal retentive once she starts cleaning. I don't sweep my room for two weeks at a time, but once I do, I have to get into all the corners, visible or not, for my peace of mind. And laundry happens to be one of the few household chores I know how to do pretty well, so I take it seriously, and having a bloody detergent stain on a newly washed pair of pants really, really ticks me off! ::fumes some more::
I was considering some petty vengeance scheme where I go down there, after thirty-eight minutes, and take her clothes out of the washer so I can rewash my pants (my nicest black ones too!), but unfortunately, my conscience reminded me that I should be forgiving. Stupid conscience. Why can't it shut up when it needs to? I think I find revenge stories, like Le comte de Monte-Cristo and the typical rich-poor family blood feud Korean dramas, thrilling precisely because it is forbidden. Turn the other cheek, love thy enemy, etc.
I started an elaborate wallpaper of a Kim Hyung-tae character (Kim Hyung-tae is the artist for Magna Carta, War of Genesis, etc.), and the PSD currently is at 51.3 MB. And it's nowhere near finished yet. >_< I still have to add a lamp, a table with a tea set, and maybe a bowl with incense. I was also thinking the walls looked a little blank, so I may try to put a scroll on the left side. I really like the way the wallpaper's turning out, even if oniichan doesn't like the scenery behind the door, and I've been working obsessively on it instead of packing. >_> Oh well. Don't worry, I'll finish the Cloud skin too. Somehow, someday, sometime...
There's no real point to this entry; I just needed to rant to someone about the laundry incident. Writing about it did calm me down a little. LJ-ing makes for good therapy doesn't it? ^_^ (Yes, I know "LJ-ing" isn't a word...but it is now.)
