A couple of times a week, I stop by Honovan's Cleaners to drop off laundry. Right around the corner, Honovan is the epitome of uber customer satisfaction. Open 12 hours a day, six days a week, she accommodates everything that I could possibly need.

I mentioned to her that I loved the fact that she opened, at 6:30 and then complained that the shoe repair store didn't open until 8.
