Somehow, I ended up in our parallel universe. You know what I am talking about—a world coexisting with us that is almost exactly like this one but with a few fundamental differences.
The parallel universe I entered
into had one particularly bizarre difference from ours.
The difference has to do with
socks
In our universe, socks
sometimes disappear in the clothes dryer.
For all I know, the missing socks could be crossing over into our
parallel universe. I don’t know the
appropriate math for either proving or disproving this.
While I was caught up in the parallel
universe, I washed and dried a batch of laundry. When I pulled the pile of clothing out from
the dryer, I found the strangest thing.
One pair of my socks had collected and folded themselves together while
tumbling around inside the machine. They
were folded together in a fashion similar to what I do before stuffing them in
my dresser.
I know for a fact the socks
were in “singles mode” when I washed them because I removed a bur seedpod from
one of them before washing.
Disappointingly, I soon
discovered the rest of my house is just as messy in our parallel universe as it
is in this one.
