    I know this goes against the spirit of … Bachelor frog meme?

    But that was a very effective way my mom suggested to combat my ache. Every night I’d take my fresh t-shirt for the next day and put it over my pillow case. It meant that my face was always getting a fresh pillowcase without me needing to have 75 pillowcases to wash for every day.

    I did also try using the shirt at the end of the day (because when my ache got bad I’d have blood spots and stuff on my shirts and couldn’t wear them) but it didn’t feel as clean and nice, so I’d just occasionally put a shirt on the pillow and then if it was soiled that first night id wear a different shirt and leave that one on the pillow for another day or 2.

    Fresh pillow cases and sheets are a magical thing.

      Nope! Once the shirt gets saturated with dead skin, sweat, and drool like the pillow case has, you just slap another tee shirt on there.

      Yeah but you don’t have to wash it as often as you would with your other shirts. It’s about postponing your laundry day.
