I can't wait to get a new dryer, but it may be a while. When I met my boy toy he was at least $50,000 in debt. No it wasn't school loans or cars, it was just about 10 years of him living way among his means. Now that we have a home and cars (paid in full thank god) and have paid the majority of his debts off I am really leary about using credit. Its like this big 17 eyed monster that hides in the attic. So now we don't buy anything we can't afford. Yes, thats right. No plastic, no payment plans, and no store credit. If we can't pay for it in cash we just simply don't buy it. BUT, I really want a dryer. I don't want to go thru laundry hell again. I also don't want to give into the credit monster either. So I will just continue to go to the laundromat just next time I will be sure to bring some candy and mace.
My husband is working a lot of overtime lately. This was his solution to me wanting to get a job. It must be his inner caveman that makes him want to keep me home. I miss him when he works so much. We take him lunch and stop by to visit, but its not the same as curling up together on the couch. Of course his bosses look down at fornicating on company time too. I'm working on a solution that will make both of us happy. I'm very domesticated which sounds bad but I really enjoy it. I think that women don't take pride in their home or cooked meals anymore. Part time work wouldn't change that. It would mean that he wouldn't have to slave away at work so much anymore. Then we could make out more. Sounds like a win win situation if you ask me.

I haven't ever been $50,000 in debt but I've been far enough in (and am again, thanks to some dumb decisions... argh!) that it makes me feel panicky to think about using credit cards. Good for you guys - so few people live within their means these days, and it's SO hard to, what with all the stupid advertising and all that.
Congrats on losing so much weight and best of luck to you as you continue!!

OK...you had me at four heads coming out of your crotch. You are my kinda blogger! I am hooked! LOL

And yes, I completely agree with you. I would have purposely opened the dryer door as they ran by hoping they were knocked unconscious! lmao!
That sounds like an awful experience with the kids. I think I might have lost it. A very entertaining post. Here's hoping the dryer fairy will solve everything. Great site.
I think that a dryer is one of those things that I would charge. Do you have a Best Buy out there? They have credit that is 0% interest for 12 months. I have bought things there and always make sure to pay them off before the interest free period ends.
Next time bring your duct tape!!!!
Dryers aren't very expensive, used dryers are practically free but if you have to go to a laundrymat--try using one near a college if there's one nearby. The crowd is generally much quieter and generally no screaming kids.
Come over to my place; you can use my dryer.
