Laundry, hygiene, etc.

The last time I did any washing was the day before I went scuba diving. (I left the clothes in the machine, then forgot to put them in the dryer, and took a garbage bag full of wet, musty-smelling, clothes to my mates place to dry in his dryer before we left to go to Otford.)

That was a fairly long time ago.

I've been wearing the same clothes for a while now.

I've been completely out of clean clothes for the best part of a week now. Underwear ran out a day or three ago.

I've been mitigating by recycling clothes. Just changing shirts, or whatever.

I think I reported the last time I had a shower... so, um, well not much on that front since then.

Now I have a dilemma.

It's hot. I've been sitting here sweating for days. I STINK.

My skin is itchy. Basically it's up there with as gross as you can get.

However, I don't want to go and have a shower, because I don't have any clean clothes to put on after it.

You know how gross it is when you're clean to get back into dirty clothes..?

Yeah, well. That's my problem.

The problem I have is that I only ever think to do my washing at night. It's 3:45am presently, which means I can't put my clothes in the machine, because the body-corporate says “no washing after 11pm.“ ( I can't help but wonder if that could be taken to expire at midnight..? If not, when..? )

...bah. (I was just passing time while the blue bar ran it's course, it's done now. I'm leaving.)
