I went to the Home Depot today to get some supplies for my stagecraft class and decided to get some other household items that I have needed for a while. Most importantly, the stuff to keep my toilet from running and a new toilet seat. I do this and have sufficient energy upon getting home to start right away on it, thinking it will be, as the cliche goes, "a piece of cake."
Well, I tried. The seat is on but I couldn't get all the old pieces out so I put what I had taken out, in and tried to just hook it back up. Tried being the operative word. Now it is squirting water out of the bottom. Hmmmm...curiouser and curiouser.
So, the inevitable phone call to my Pops, the cancellation of plans to see if my Dad can come over, and I think I may have to pee soon.
Sure I can deal for a night, my roommate isn't coming home tonight, so that's good, my last fear is that my Dad drives out here and it turns out I don't have all of the right parts. That would be terrible...and he would be terribly angry. But he hasn't called back yet.
He said it would be easy.
Ug.
