money pit and madness and sadness

Aug 12, 2009 23:50

so if you've seen the money pit you might find humor with the following... i bought a house in arrowbear, just past running springs...for those of you redlands folks, that is about 30 minutes up the mountain. not too sure how i'll like the winter yet - but i'll try to love it.
i don't have electricity yet, so i brought a shit load of candles and lined them up in front of the fire place and around the living room. the night was good - but i now realize my neighbors across the street are psychotic, shooting their bee bee guns off the balcony into the street? at what? i don't know and drinking beers... (beers are good)...went to a local bar that happened to have this amazing band that night, playing classic rock and other tunes they dreamed up. came back home a little happy and a little sad. and had to pee. so i went to pee. and the toilet worked the first time. the second time was not so good. water started pooling out of the thing onto the floor - so i turn that little handle to shut the water off to the toilet and think, ah, at least i stopped a lake from forming. but it was to no avail. a guest of mine decided to pee in the upstairs restroom. pee she did. and then came the flush!! soo....bubbles and stuff start coming out of the downstairs toilet and then just gushes of water (apparently the guest decided get a bath as well) just fill the downstairs bathroom. and so i'm running around grabbing all the new towels i bought for the house and throwing them into the downstairs bathroom to soak up water and yelling at the bastard upstairs to "fuckin stop with the water already!!!!!" and of course i bought RED towels and CREAM towels because i thought that was a pretty sexy combo. but i hadn't washed the RED towels yet like one is supposed to do with new, red things, so the red towels leaked dye all over the CREAM ones and now I have Tie dye red/cream towels which is okay but a little irritating and soo... now i need a plumber.
