My Sony WF-1000XM5 earbuds survived the washing machine

This morning, in a drowsy state, I threw my dirty laundry into the wash, as one is wont to do. After getting ready for a morning walk, I realized my headphones weren't in my backpack... Where was the last place I might have left them? In the pocket of a jacket that is currently in the wash. Bingo!

I opened the washing machine, afraid of what I would find. But to my pleasant surprise, the light on the case still turned on when I placed the buds back in, and the buds still connected to my computer and phone.

What I was dreading, finding non-working earbuds, ended up being a nice cleaning of them!

This may be normal, but this is something I wanted to share!
