Dry cleaning for the sexesWhen Busy Dad takes a shirt or jacket to the dry cleaner, it comes back neatly on a hanger.
When I take a shirt or jacket to the dry cleaner, it comes back neatly on a hanger, but, every available orifice is stuffed (hey there, Google) with tissue paper.
I have a closet full of neatly pressed and starched scarecrows.

Thanks for all the nice birthday wishes and Facebook messages and gifts!

Perhaps that's why cleaning a woman's shirt costs twice as much as a man's.
(Happy belated birthday!)
Hmm. Curious. And quite wasteful on the part of the dry cleaner.
I never get anything dry cleaned anymore, so this is all news to me.
I don't think we use the same dry cleaner.
Ha... You said orifice.
I'm lucky enough not to have to dry clean - I hate that dry clean smell.
Sounds like a pretty closet!
you better change your age in your side bar! LIAR! trying to pretend like you are 42! sheesh!
Never saw such a thing. (Not that my wife regularly uses a dry cleaner, but still... never even heard about this before.)
Is this another Southern phenomenon, perhaps?
For some reason my pants always come back shorter and tighter.. Wow.. did I really gain that much weight in just 3 days? Amazing......
I don't think I've gotten anything dry cleaned in years. I just don't buy clothes that I know will need it. But the stuffing thing? Because that's just what we mom's need to add to our daily to-do lists "Unstuff Clothes"
I've heard of girls stuffing their bras with tissue, but they are usually wearing them at the time. Of course, having that pre-arranged in the closet, saves five minutes.
Martinizing, the next level of service.
Dry Cleaner? Never been there.
