Plumbers! Yes Plumbers! Our party resulted in the need for Plumbers and the wishful thinking for a landlord that would pay. The party started and the drinks were flowing. Everyone was having a great time except perhaps me because I was still recovering from being sick. Then about midnight the discovery was made. Someone noticed in the corner of the kitchen there was water gathering. It was as if it was gathering its strength to come join the party. Panic, screaming, running in the streets as people fled the water monster that had invaded my kitchen.
Carefully those who remained to fight the water monster moved in. One person with a towel or two, one with a bowl and one with a knife and flashlight all stood in the kitchen warily stepping towards the monster. The towel and bowl people stepped up to the water monster and started collecting the monster in a contained area. Meanwhile the person with the knife walked to the other side of the kitchen and stabbed my ceiling! A hole was cut into the ceiling revealing more water gathering to join the party.
Now your imagination is greatly needed for the next set of events. Imagine 20 people standing outside looking through a sliding door. Each looking on with apprehension waiting to see who will win between the brave group that has consumed too much or the water monster. Another person has stepped forward with a shop-vac to clean up the insulation that has fallen from the ceiling. This seems like a great idea until the shop-vac shows its true nature. While sucking up insulation on one end it is just as quickly blowing it out the other side straight at the onlookers. Apparently the shop-vac had been consuming when we weren’t looking and no longer felt up to the task of sucking up insulation.
That was the story of our party. The good news is that the water monster was coming from the pipes bringing water into the bathroom. Meanwhile I sit in my little cube waiting for Mr. Toad to call and inform me the results of the plumber.
