not only did i wash (and fold) all of my laundry tonight without a single injury, but i also saved my beloved raiders dress (just like the one in pictured, but much bigger because i am teh huge) from the perils of color-run bleeding/icky red dye splotches due to an errant halloween accessory. yay!!!! i also saved a pair of khakis that were suffering the same unfortunately stained fate. thank christ. plan b was a random laundry treatment chemical that jc from job #2 suggested. plan c was take my dress to the cleaners and pray that the icky red blotches could be removed — of course they were on the silver/grey paneling where it was so obvious, of course! and plan d was to most likely get a new one. or cry some more.
but i prevailed! scrubbing and pre-treating and making a big ol’ soggy mess in the bathroom and my dress is good as new again. yayers! even better because the silver & black boys are coming off a victory over washington. victory all around! w00t!!!
i dare say i may be close to breaking the dreaded Laundry of Doom curse…at least, i hope so.
