There's a certain something about a towel that makes even the most cynical of us turn and smile. Towels are one of the first things which greets us in the morning. It's the embrace of a towel after a hot shower every day that gives us pause just before we start our day. And we know if our towel is bad. If we go for too long without washing our towel or if we use our towel too quickly between showers we know it. There is a musty kind of mildewey heat and wetness in our drying off which is a very unpleasant and can make anyone shudder.
But there's a flip side to this coin which is that towels are our friend. A warm towel straight out of the dryer is beyond compare. One of the only things I miss about living with my mother in the abhorrent suburbs was that I would be able to get a towel straight out of the dryer out of the shower. And this is one of the only things that keeps me going to succeed and to be amazing so that I can have a washer dryer in my home or in my apartment. I'll really know I've achieved a level of some success if that ever happens. For now though I am satisfied with the air dry towel which greets me every day. And a towel that is good and has got a lot of thread count is much better than a cheap towel. However you can find good towels with a lot of thread count that are cheap. One of the things you’ve got to do is be alert to when house wares places are having sales. Believe it or not, you can find some of the nicest towels at some of the cheapest stores. They box retailers and discount stores often have really nice towels with a really nice thread count for really cheap. If you're in a hotel and you have to use one of their really cheap skuzzy towels it can often make or break your experience. I've known people who have not returned to a brand of hotel for just that reason; they're towels were very unpleasant and they had a really nasty time. I think there's a passage in the Bible somewhere that says something to the effect of, “As goes your towel, so goes your experience at the inn.” Towels are a very important item in everyone's life. While we might not think about it, it's one of those things that we use every day and we depend on it to be there and perform well for us even though all has to do is sit there and embrace us and keep us safe and dry us off.
