New laundry procedure. Prior to this week, once a week the staff would come by and exchange your two sheets, blanket, and towel for clean items. They decided to hand out an extra laundry bag and now we have to wash our own bedding along with our personal clothes. So this morning I am sitting in my cell with just the clothes on my back.

I have only one T-shirt and one towel (more are on the way), so along with the bedding that has been taken to be washed I am down to one set of green khakis and one pair of socks. The sheets are really thin and the six-and-a-half foot square blanket is also pretty light. Not quite the comfort of the four blankets I had at Club Fed.

The temperature here in the cellblock is either too hot or too cold. I am stuck with either curling under one sheet with the blanket folded in half for extra warmth but not "full coverage", or using it single-ply and freezing my you-know-what off! So yes, I do wake up being cold and have had to put on my heavyweight khakis. Now I am sitting up for the next three hours or so waiting for the return of the laundry.

Caffeinated Soap? Now here is an interesting take for dirty people with ADD. I read about a new soap which contains caffeine anhydrous, and using it supposedly allows the body to absorb caffeine equivalent to two cups of coffee. They are available at Target.com for $7 per bar or three for $14.99. Each bar is good for twelve washes.
