Natter 55: It's the 55th Natter
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Soup is an option too.
You know? I think today is a burrito day.
I have a tale of woe for y'all. My mom is off in Newport Beach visiting an old friend at the swanky retirement community she lives at. We are having 10 people to dinner tonight, all journalists who are in town for the car show. We were running around like maniacs last night getting the house presentable for giuests until late., Then while J walked the dog and I was turning off lights, I heard...water dripping. Not dripping, GUSHING. Our water heater gave up the ghost and water was pouring out if it. I grabbed a bucked and started catching and dumping as much water as I could while waiting for Jason to come home.
When Jason came home, he turned off the intake valve, which is when we realized it didn't work and water was continuing to fill the water heater (and spill out if it into the overflowing catbox below. He turned off the water to the whole house, so now we are without any water. Much floor cleaning and dumping buckets in the yard followed. And did I mention I was in my underwear for all of this? I was.
Jason is at home taking care of this today. I am very lucky to have a freelance writer/producer as a husband, as he canceled his gig today and is on the case.
Whoa. Woe.
Oh fucksticks, Robin! I am so sorry about that!
OTOH, as sorry as your DH probably was, I'm betting he was thinking, "Yay, Wife in her underwear!" somewhere in there cause, ya know, Yay!.

Oh that sucks, double sucks with the intake valve not working. Sorry Robin.
she had offended me by not visiting me. but, she does that every year
This is my problem with her too.
Oh dear, Robin!
I told J that we now had our first Homeowner Disaster story, and no one got hurt in it, so that was cool.
I know I am going to be awfully tired during this dinner party tonight.
Oh, Robin, that sucks! Put your visitors on bucket duty. Give them an adventure story to remember!
