today i arrived at the laundromat to find that not only was no one else there, but there were also no wash or dry cycles going — i had the place entirely to myself. while this didn’t last all night, it lasted until my wash cycle was almost over. at that point, a girl came in and started loading up the machine right next to mine. although i don’t think laundromat etiquette is anything like urinal etiquette, where you wouldn’t set up shop right next to someone else, it still seemed like an odd decision. after all, i had to gently push her open door out of the way to unload my own machine, and obviously there were plenty of other options available.
