Plumbing snafu

Looks like we have a leak in the pipes under the dining room floor. Our apartment has a concrete slab foundation. And the pipes are embedded in it.

Yay 1970s (60s?) construction.

Fortunately (no really) the leak seems to be continuous, because that means it’s probably a supply line – which they can bypass. If it’s the drain line they’ll have to jackhammer out the dining room floor 😬

Also that means the carpet’s soaking in *clean* water.

Plumber’s coming tomorrow morning.

Is there a more monotonous song for backup singers than “Sympathy for the Devil?” Woo wooo! Wooo wooo!

Neighbors are listening to a Rolling Stones collection and this is the only part of the song that carries. It’s like there’s an insistent owl next door.

It doesn’t help that my wake up alarm is currently set to an owl-hoot sound, so in the back of my head I keep thinking I need to dismiss an alarm

So tired of alleged USB cables that use proprietary connectors. It’s like…you were so close…

So tired of alleged USB cables that use proprietary connectors.

It’s like…you were so close. You used a standard USB charger. With a standard USB connector…at one end.

But I still need your special cable with it’s special connector to actually be able to charge this damn thing.

It has to have been a gift but I can’t remember who it was from or what for or when or anything.

Well, I guess that counts as rain…

Well, I guess that counts as rain.

A few minutes of rolling thunder and just enough water to move the dust around a bit.

Oh, there we go.

Don’t know how long it’ll last or where the lightning is striking, but at least I had time to move stuff away from the front of the garage that I didn’t think I’d need to move for a few more months^H^H^H^H^H^H weeks
