It is strange how
It is strange how sometimes real life pushes itself in on you in the most inopportune times. AWEGAWEKLTAJWEGAEFLKJSGES and I were nervous about seeing each other after eight months of not, after four months of being broken up, and there was a lot of build-up. So I go and get her, and she comes over to the apartment, and what's the first thing that happens?The toilet backs up.
It's never backed up before for me, just a fluke. And it wasn't too disgusting or anything... well kind of... but then we realized that I didn't have a toilet plunger. Flushing it repeatedly wouldn't do anything - it would just come up close the rim and go back down - each time closer to the rim. So I had to go buy a plunger. And she wanted to come with me. And then we started laughing about how strange it would look to go through the checkout lane with ONLY a toilet plunger. And we started thinking about what else we could buy with it that would make it better... or worse... so we thought of things like buying a plunger and metamucil, or a plunger and a case of Ex-Lax.
And we ended up having a good time the rest of the day. So, there's
real life for you. I guess life is better with real life than without it.
