Blame It on the Rain
well, my basement officially flooded last night. It withstood all of the other rain over the past couple of weeks, but the couple of inches of rain we got yesterday did it. Actually though, it's not obnoxiously bad down there. The floor is cement, not carpeted. The back end has a little pool maybe an inch deep, but the area of most concern, where the washer and dryer are located is not wet at all. Plus, everything that is down there is in plastic containers and on shelves. It's just going to get more mildewy and moldy and aggravate my allergies.
Anyway, tomorrow is my friend's bridal shower. I need to have a bridal shower, but just not the wedding. I bought a vacuum cleaner yesterday because mine was dead. We were using the bad roommate's vacuum, but as part of her passive-aggressiveness, she now locks it in her bedroom closet and doesn't let us use it. but, whatever. There's just domestic stuff I want like new towels, bedding, blender, etc. Maybe I'll pull a Carrie Bradshaw on Sex & the City:
"Hi, I'm getting married."
"To Myself."
"And I'm registered at Manolo Blahnik."
Except I won't register at Manolo Blahnik, but at Bed, Bath and Beyond.
It should be a pretty good weekend all around, lots of small other stuff planned, and for the first time in the three years I've been at my company, we get MLK off. Hurray.
