Laundry.  I never questioned it.  You separate whites, darks, lights, towels, etc.  It never occurred to me to do it any other way than the way my parents taught me.  Recently I've learned that people do their laundry all willie-nilly just throwing in towels with their shirts and other crazy what have you.  Blasphemy, I say!  In fact just a couple of days ago Katie and I were discussing towel storage options for the shoebox I live in and she said something about "well you probably just use the same couple of towels over and over anyway..." and honest to goodness I tell you it never occurred to me to not wait until all of the towels I had were dirty and to wash them in their own separate, special little load.  It's a brand new world, Internet.  Today I went down to the laundry room to wash my sheets, and sadly the cheap-o washers they have here don't give you an option for small, medium, large loads so I felt like it was such a waste of water (and my quarters) to just wash a couple of sheets when it donned on me: I should run upstairs and grab some more dirty laundry and throw it all in at once!  And what do you know?  The world didn't stop spinning.  It's like it's perfectly okay for me to wash sheets, napkins and towels all at the same flippin' time.  Genius!
