7. Your Dry Cleaner Still Can't Work Miracles
Does anyone really know how dry cleaning works? The answer is no—it’s just one of those mysteries of life. Or, at least, it is to me. So even though there is a small voice in my head whispering, "That’s wine AND chocolate AND blood on that camel-hair blazer, and nothing in the world is going to get that out," I believe the dry cleaner can fix it. And, $20 later...no. No, the dry cleaner can not perform magic. And I didn’t listen to my wise inner voice, and there goes my $20. Every. Time.
