Well, here goes. I blew my nose and tossed the kleenex into the toilet. Flushed. Started out of the bathroom and noticed that the water wasn't going down. It kept coming up. And up. And up. I realized it wasn't going to stop and looked around for the plunger. Remembered it was upstairs. Tossed down a towel dam (and painfully enough, these were freshly laundered towels) and dashed upstairs. Dashed back down. The toilet was still running and there was a quarter inch of standing water on the floor, held back from the carpet only by my clean towels. Yanked the lid off of the tank to stop the water. Set it down too quickly on the sink and broke it into 3 pieces. Plunged the toilet. THEN the damn toilet stopped. I had to use every single towel to mop the mess up because the damn mop wouldn't pick up any water. Then I had to spin the towels down in the washer and use them all again. Then I set the towels on to wash, and decided to glue the tank lid back together. Opened the Super Glue. Apparently had too tight a grip because the Super Glue promptly stuck the index finger, middle finger, and thumb together on my left hand. Transferred the glue tube and broke open my fingers. Then I discovered that my index finger, middle finger, and thumb on my right hand were glued together. Broke them apart. Glued the tank lid together. Then I spent 15 minutes shaving the Super Glue off of my fingers and thumbs with a dull paring knife. Realized I'd forgotten to put fabric softener in the washing maching just as the cycle completely ended. Added softener and repeated rinse cycle.
So how was YOUR evening?
