OK, I need to know if I’m neurotic or right as usual. It all revolves around the laundry. In order to keep things neutral, I will omit the names to protect the innocent (kevin).

The laundry detail is divided into two separate but equal areas of responsibility. Person A rounds up the laundry from all over the house, brings it down to the basement, separates it and washes it. Person B receives the fresh laundry and folds it and puts it all away. Sounds simply? Well, here’s the twist that caused a commotion in the McLaughlin household last night.

Simply put, Person B prefers that the laundry is warm upon folding. This allows for minimum wrinkling and avoids the dreaded “I” word. This requirement has completely baffled Person A who believes that once the cloths are in the drier his, er, Person A’s job is complete. The result? There were seven (7) loads of laundry sitting in the basement last night and Person B was without any fresh clothing. SEVEN LOADS!!!!! And when Person B reasonably requested that the loads were reheated before folding could commence, Person A went totally ballistic and called Person B neurotic and deemed her a “laundry natzi”.

Now I ask you, it is too much to ask for warm laundry? Please let me know who you think is neurotic – Person A or Person B. Any suggesting to the laundry system would be much appreciated.

(Oh yeah, Person A sucks at separating and has turned all of Person B’s socks and undies pink along with shirking every nice blouse Person B owns so I think Person B is entitle to a little grumbling, don’t you?)
