 Response to:
Injured Dog Rescued From A Ditch by Ah! Amoeba
I am surprised by both my own laziness to do things, and at how long the local dry-cleaner will hold a heavy, unwashed winter jacket reeking of dog piss. I finally got around to the cleaner's today to pick up a thick, fur-lined London fog coat I had dropped off in still-sometimes-chilly February. It made me feel odd and slightly foolish to be asking for a fashionable winter coat on the hottest day of the year. Come to find out, after 4 long months they still hadn't washed it because, as the lady said, "they can't".
Oh, why not?
"tears and stuff. can't do it."
Um, okay then.
Well thanks anyway.
Can clothes not be dry-cleaned if they have tears in them? I never thought about it, and my natural reaction is people must bring in frayed and nipped clothes all the time. I can't imagine them sending them all away with clothes that will remain unwashed until the end of time. I don't know shit about how all that works, so I'll have to take her word for it.
So, uh, I guess I'll hand wash out the pee stains? In a big bucket?
Your legacy lives on, dear friend.
