Yesterday I did my laundry. I hung it outside to dry. When it was time for bed, I felt the laundry and thought "well,it's ALMOST dry" so I left it to hang overnight.
Overnight we got a HUGE house-shaking rainstorm. Of course, it woke me up at around 3 in the morning, but I was so tired that I decided it was already too late for the laundry and went back to sleep. When I woke up, most of my laundry was in a big, sopping wet heap on the porch. Luckily none of my dainties flew over into the schoolyard behind the house. Actually, I'm pretty lucky none of my clothes flew off my back porch at all. Unfortunately all articles were waterlogged with 1.3 metric(!) tons of water, so I left them all right where they were and went to work. I was secretly hoping someone would happen by and feel bad for me and hang all of my laundry back up for me.
Thankfully, at work they have a time machine. The main control panel looks like this.
And up close each individual panel looks like this.
And all I have to do is monitor this little device until the electric capacitor reaches 1.21 Gigawatts. Then, in the words of my co-worker, "If my calculations are correct, when this baby hits 88 miles per hour, you're gonna see some serious sh-".
So after a long hard day at work, I took the time machine and went back in time, to the time just after the storm when no one had done anything about my laundry for me.
Then I rewashed most of it and that was that.
And yes, those are all really machines I work with.
Seriously? That's all I've got today?
that was good
