« More PMS from Pischina | Main | The Dark Knight »

I'm about to lay down some serious cussing and swearing about my bathroom toilet. But I'm going to try not to.

The (swearing) toilet has been (cussing) leaking all over my (swearing) bathroom and destroying my (swearing) bathroom floor but I have to go to Aptos this weekend, and when I finally found where the (cussing) leak was coming from [the hose] I shut off the (swearing) water to it at 1am but this morning the (cussing) tank is back FULL OF (SWEARING) WATER again so later this morning [AFTER my workout] I yanked and wrenched on the (swearing) valve again until it shut off but then when Spike tried to get the (cussing) hose off water started STREAMING out of the (swearing) (cussing) valve flooding my bathroom AGAIN, (SWEARING) AGAIN, so we both (SWEARING) yanked on the (SWEARING) valve some more while it was plugged with a (cussing) towel until finally, (SWEARING) FINALLY it appears the water is shut off.

(Oh, and Murphy? I didn't shed one tear while doing it. AND I held in the swear words. Aren't ya proud?)

But now we can't unscrew the top of the hose from the tank. But I don't even care at this point, the (swearing) water is shut off and the toilet can (swearing) sit there for the weekend until I get back. I've learned way more than I ever wanted to about toilets by googling "How to shut off water to toilet" "How to replace toilet supply hose" "How to remove toilet hose" "How to shut off main water valve" etc etc. Did you know there are even videos on the internet showing you how to turn the valve off?

So next weekend I'm sure I'll be googling "How to replace a bathroom floor" "How to tear out water damage" and "How to lay linoleum".

Fun Fun Fun.

You're a better person than I. While I wouldn't have cried, oh I can guarantee you I woulda been swearing a blue streak.

That is one honery toilet you got there.
