Well, apparently everyone washes their flip flops in the washing machine. I mean, how else would a girl get their myriad pairs of flip flops clean? I learned this today when I came upon a bathtub of floating flops which Catherine sighed had only been necessitated by the washing machine having - heaven forbid- someone else's damp clothes in it. Transfer to the dryer was impossible because There were clothes of Ryan's in the dryer, and a warm soapy bath was drawn for the flops. My wondering about whether the washer was the best way to wash shoes, was met with disdain/confusion: how else does one clean one's shoes? I confess, I had no answer.
We leave for Paris tomorrow and I guess that means clean flip flops are in order. There is much excitement - Sam packed everything he owns clothes-wise yesterday and then schlepped around today in mismatched and ill-fitting clothes deemed not cool enough for Europe.
