I got a lot of laughs out of this. Was the protagonist whiny? Certainly, but I could handle listening to her for a flash story (a novella starring her I wouldn't want to read). This was a good example of flash fiction, it has a fun idea, it gets in, explores it, and gets out before the novelty wears off. I particularly thought it was pretty morbid that she just ran the washer constantly to keep its moans from bothering her, rather than dealing with it herself or finding someone else to deal with it.
