Plumber-ing My toilet broke last night. At 1:30 in the morning. It just wouldn't stop running no matter what I did to it. Run run run run run. Tired and exasperated, I decided to just shut off the toilet and go to bed and fix it in the morning. Lo and behold, however, I discover that none of my water-devices (tub, sink, toilet, etc) have shut-off valves on them! Doh. Head to the basement. No shut-off valves down there either, save for the whole house valve. Well, can't let it run. Got up early this morning and threw on a hat and a jacket and went to Home Depot to buy a new tank valve thingy. I was a bit disconcerted that the only replacement valve thingy was exactly the same as my broken one. Back home, grab some wrenches, a glove (for twisting/gripping) and a small bathroom garbage can to catch water. Good thing, too. The water shut-off doesn't seem to quite shut off the water. So I had about one gallon's worth of slow water trickle to dismantle and replace the toilet valve. Go! I made it with about an inch of capacity to spare. Whew. And look! No butt crack. Yuck.. I hate that.. and no water shut off, sounds like when my water softner went a couple of months ago. ahh, the joys of home ownership.. but you know what, I wouldn't trade it.. anyway, just so you know, I believe that the Home Depot on 494 by the airport is open 24 hours.. for those late night emergencies..and I think you used photoshop to paint out your butt crack.. you know.. they do it for the magazines all the time.. posted by: bill on February 19, 2003 12:07 PMi think that's the cutest picture of you i've ever seen! and yes, the home depot on 494 is open 24 hours. late-night wingnuts. posted by: irish-girl on February 19, 2003 5:14 PMSo is the WalMart in Port Lavaca Texas for those of us REALLY late night wing nuts..(emphasis on nuts). I'll show you my pig feed eating video, if you'll promise to never put another of your ass shots on the net.... posted by: jack on February 19, 2003 10:52 PMdon't listen to him. i say more ass shots! ass shots every day. i want to live in the kingdom of ass shots. posted by: irish-girl on February 19, 2003 11:16 PModdly enough, there is another ass-shot of mine out in the ether somewhere from about 1990. doubtful if it is on the 'net proper as it was posted to a smallish BBS. although I fully expect it to surface at some em-bare-ass-ing time. har har. posted by: jeremy w on February 20, 2003 12:29 AM |
