UPDATE: Ra doesn't Drip Dry

So, sure enough, Ra very vocally let me know that, after his "washing", he was ready to dry.

The dryer is definitely one of the favorite human-made heating units (not quite as good as a lap, but better than the air vents on top of a desktop PC case because it's hard to clog up the fan opening to ensure more heat is kept in). It's perfect for sitting on top of and keeping warm... after all, it is hard to keep toasty after watching me shovel so much snow over the past 4 months. It's not easy supervising my work from inside the house with a window in between, either.
