Oh air, what art thou good for?

Oh so many things for starters.

But right now I'm just considering drying - a job air is pretty darn good at.
We have so many modern way of drying things, from paper towels, to hairdryers, to ovens, to those superjet blowers in the bathrooms. All of these ways use natural resources and energy, which for the majority is an inexpensive (and unconsidered) price to pay for the convenience (Remember, americans and the like crave immediate satisfaction).

I've done pretty well over my life cutting back on the resources that go into my drying needs (haven't used a hair dryer since grade school, always air-dryed dishes, full dryer load for pants&jackets (airdryed most shirts), skipped paper towels, etc) so now I'm going all the way when I'm in control and doing only air-drying.

Hasn't been a challenge so far, I don't mind wiping my hands on my pants/jacket, or on my hankerchief if ive got a spare with me.. and airdrying dishes isn't hard at all with that drying rack and perhaps assistance of handtowel that hangs on oven door handle.. but today I've run into my first hurdle. As my recently departed roommate ran off with my second drying rack, and I don't have a clothes hanger rope (yet) since I live in these cramped apartments (no space to put one), I am going to have to get creative. The hard part comes from having a front loading washer and thus having to run a large load everytime you use it, giving me alot more clothes and other items than I have drying space for. But I am tackling this now. Probably will have to get out hangers onto my showercurtainrod...
