Yikes! Yeah, drinking seems like an appropriate response and I bet the emergency plumber will agree.
Love makes you do the wacky.

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.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I would just make sure you have a place to pee if you start drinking. Because yikes.
My optometrist now does retinal exams digitally instead of manually.
Maybe it was because we were already talking body parts, but it took me a long time to realize you didn't mean fingers instead of hands....

I just won't flush.
I've established that it will drain...eventually. Volume of water from doing dishes is too much. Basically, more than a bucket is too much.
I'll have service within 24 hours. Might even get a call tonight, but more likely in the morning. Feh. Still the difference between knowing it WILL cost $500 vs POSSIBLY costing $500, but also POSSIBLY totally covered by a $75 service fee.

Oh Sara, that is not fun. That happened at my parents' on thanksgiving weekend. My brother and BiL were champs and snaked the sewer line themselves. It was gross.

Oh man, Sara, that sucks.
Also, Ginger is funny and billy tea is awesome.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
fingers instead of hands....
Hah. Yes, that possibility did occur to me.

Yeah, this is a DIY I will not attempt.

This,and I also read retinal as rectal... It was super confusing!

Well, digital would still be an improvement over manual in that case, I'm thinking.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
billytea, thank you for saving my hat from my guts. Those were awesome!
Also, I might have grown up to be a more sciencey person if I'd had more teachers like my friend's. Extra credit for anatomy haiku is exactly the kind of thing that would've suckered me in.
