hand washed and dried. <10 minutes of effort.

Back story: I dressed sexy and then spilled coffee all over myself. I’m going to a social event tonight and still wanted to look sexy, but not do a whole load of laundry.

I used my regular detergent (powder rather than liquid) in a large bowl under the bathroom sink. I used rubber gloves and just swished it around and rubbed a little until all the spots were gone. I improved the pit regions as well, while I was at it!

I rinsed 2-3x, until the water stopped being soapy, and hand wrung.

I am drying inside because I live downtown and vagrants wander into my yard; they take lemons from the tree—fine by me, I’m not eating them. but if they were to take something else, I’d be pretty disappointed. so I’ll just not give them the chance, and we can live in harmony.

the shirt is almost completely dry (wearable) after less than 30 minutes. also, I can see a light vapor pattern in the sunlight shining on my desk; it’s pretty cool looking.
