Burst

Monday, October 2, 2023

“Ah… the joys of homeownership,” she says as her feet get wet.

It was a fairly uneventful day… until it was time for bed. Then it burst. What burst? The pipe under my bathroom sink as I was getting ready for bed.

There I am, washing my face, when I noticed that my feet are getting wet. I look down to see water coming from the cabinet under my sink. Of course, I start freaking out because all of my “girly” things are under there. Namely, A LOT of expensive make-up. As I frantically pull everything out, I’m yelling at the boyfriend what happened. What does he do? Comes over and just stands there. Watching me. Not helping. I wanted to fling the water at him. I spent the next 30 minutes drying and assessing damage to all of the crap that was under my sink, putting towel and bucket down to catch any of the dripping water after shutting it off. Looks like I’m calling my dad in the morning.

It’s times like this that I wish I had a landlord.
