Oh god. I'm going to remember this day as the height of my domesticated, civilized, white bread, middle class life. After the rapture and the apocalypse, when we are catching rats for food and building a raft to float above the sunken battery park, I'm going to laugh and say "Ha, and to think, just a couple years ago I was so excited to get a washing machine for my apartment. So excited that I couldn't wait to do a load of laundry."
