It's Soft and Smells Good!
If I don't say something then Emilie will. If it must be said, then I suppose I would rather be the one to say it. I went to get some jeans out of the dryer yesterday only to find that the clothes in the dryer were still wet. I removed all the clothes from the dryer and left just the jeans that I wanted to wear so that they could dry faster. Ultimately, the jeans never got dry enough to wear so I wore another pair. I put all the clothes back in the dryer and started it up again so that the load could finish drying. Once the load was done, I took the clothes out and put them on the bed to fold. I noticed that there were three fabric sheets mixed in with the load and I wasn't sure why Emilie used three sheets. As I continued to fold the clothes I found more fabric sheets. Then I found the box. It was empty. Apparently, when I put the clothes back into the dryer I accidentally put the box of fabric sheets in with the load. All told, I dried the clothes with 26 fabric sheets. The clothes smell great, are very soft - almost soapy - and show absolutely no signs of static cling. Woohoo!
On Saturday I went riding with the regular crew. This time we did the Emigrant Trail up by Truckee. The ride is about 22 miles and is a lot of fun. The downhills are great and the uphills aren't too terribly painful. It was a good workout, though. The trail goes from Prosser to Stampede and then back. There's still a lot of rides that I want to do - I think I'm going to try Peavine before the end of the summer.
I finally finished reading John Stossel's book Give Me a Break: How I Exposed Hucksters, Cheats, and Scam Artists and Became the Scourge of the Liberal Media. I'm not sure what happened, but I was reading a different book and then just stopped and started reading this one. Anyway, it was excellent. He has some interesting viewpoints that I don't necessarily agree with, but he makes good points.
Once I remember what else I was going to blog about I'll add it...
