Last night while up at the local grocery store, I was looking for clothespins — an item which, unfortunately, QFC doesn’t carry. All I needed them for was to help dry my Utilikilt after washing it, as rather than running it through an electric dryer, they recommend hanging it so that the pleats don’t get goofed up.
Meanwhile, for the past couple of days, I’d been trying to arrange the delivery of a package from UPS which was consistently showing up at my apartment between five and six in the evening, when I’m at work. I redirected the package to work, and it showed up sometime this morning.
Turns out the package was my birthday present from mom: a set of skirt hangers, along with a note written on a printout of the Utilikilt washing and drying instructions.
Look: a gift that doesn’t annoy or make noise or anything! How dull. Mom.
I think that’s great. Dull? Perhaps — but just what I needed.
Thanks mom!
