Trauma

[Rye]

Jeez Louisiana.

I don't care if I was doing it right or wrong, I just wanted the clog to go away. It wasn't going away with my initial "gentle" plumbing, and I was getting nervous that the toilet would be clogged for the weekend, since we had no staff on duty to help us just in case I couldn't fix it, and I had my parents on the phone to help me because I was afraid if I were to flush it, everything would overflow from the toilet. I wasn't aware that there was a nice clean way to plumb. Honestly, it's just all sordid, whether it splashes or not.

So honestly, I'm proud that I fixed it at all, splash or no splash, because I don't do those things. xD You guys need to realize that every girl who shares our bathroom (5 others) told me that they're proud of me, because they would have called anyone, a repairman, or their freaking father from miles away to fix it, because they wouldn't have. So I'm SUPERGIRL.

So no more picking on me. ;o I'm a little sheltered in terms of what I've done and not done, considering my father is a mechanic and has fixed any clog or broken thing in the house for me, and I've not grown up with a baby, because my brother is only 2 years younger than me. I realize that a baby needs changing as well. I'm not retarded, dears. xD

Don't think of it as picking on you; it's good that you are learning. Think of it as advice on how to do it next time. You should know if it's unclogged if some of the stuff happens to come back up, or, if you really did it right, there should be a massive visible drop in water level and a weird sound. You shouldn't have your face get any closer to the toilet than what it needs to be to see it and use the plunger. If you're that much concerned about not having a toilet, suggest to your neighbors that they employ a courtesy flush.

Or lay off the chili and sour cream and ration the toilet paper. Courtesy flush works better; toilet paper is usually the culprit of the clog.

It's good you got rid of the blockage, what Tav said about advice and learning is kinda true it's not being mean from my standpoint, I tease yes but only cause you're sweet and easy to tease because you've been so sheltered all your life. :P It's mean to camp spawn a friend 50 times in an game of medal of honor with one hit kill weapons (I did this on a 4 player split screen game, he spawned 50 times in front of me and died 50 times to me whilst the other 2 sat there laughing their asses off, credit goes to him for not giving up) See the difference?

Generally household chores don't bother me at all but when washing the dishes...and the little bits of food that clog the plug and float around in the water and touch my hands. EW OH MY GOD.

This is attached to my place, so I'm not sure if it counts as household or not. For some kooky reason, the stairs leading up to where I live is constantly covered with flies. Like, they're everywhere. But they're all dead! I don't know how they're getting in there, and I don't know why they die so fast once inside. It covered my stairs like a freaking carpet. Cleaning it up has totally traumatized me. I'm convinced my stairs are some kind of cult mecca for flies.
