Since I've been out of the water, pretty much, for the last couple weeks and I'll be starting back up Monday I thought this would be a good time to throw my suit in the washer. Has anyone ever read the tag on their suit? I laughed when I read it "wash after every use in cold water." Come on now! Who's going to do that? I'm pretty sure I've owned suits that never saw the inside of a washing machine.
Does anyone actually wash their suits regularly? Maybe I'm just gross :D

That's almost exactly what I do!
I keep the suit on till I get home (10 min form the pool) Dump the suit in the bathroom sink, let cold water run over it while I'm showering... about 15 minutes. Then it dries hanging over the shower door.
About once a week I hand wash all of the suits I wore that week in woolite.
I take off my suit before I get in the shower after I swim. While I'm waiting for the water to warm up, I rinse my suit in the lukewarm water. That's all I ever do.
DON'T WRING OUT YOUR SUIT.
I just let it drip dry at home.
