David likes to stay at home and relax over the weekend. On Sunday night, as usual, David was lying on his bed, eating chips and watching his favorite drama. It was then that David noticed his laundry basket filled with dirty clothes. It struck David that he had not washed his clothes for a week, so he hastily put his clothes in the washing machine. Afterwards, David returned to his bedroom and continued watching the drama, only to accidentally fall asleep.
