Ryan and I both noticed that the sand by our plumbing valve hasn't dried out since last Saturday's episode.
That's crazy you say, because we got it fixed....right?!? Well, let me tell you a little story...
I like to call this chapter, "It was this big".
(You know those fishing stories were people tend to exaggerate how big the fish really was...this is one of those stories except this one really was that big!)
Ryan came home for lunch and started to investigate the wet sand by our valve. Sure enough, our pipes had backed up...yet again! He immediately called the plumbers and had them come back out.
To make a "crappy" story short....THREE HOURS LATER this is all I have to say...
"That is the last time I eat particle board for dinner...it hurt like hell coming out."
one of the Plumbers... notice the small hole he is working on.
The evidence...Yes!!! All that and more was down our little pipe the plumber is working on in the first picture. Most of the sticks were 12 to 20 inches long but that big one...that one was over 3 feet long and 3 inches wide!!!
What is it you ask...This is an old dresser that broke, some wire, two dozen rocks and about 10 minutes of two un-supervised juvenile delinquents that happen to be our neighbors. The dresser broke and was sitting by the side of the house until 3 weeks ago when we had room to fit it in our trash can.
That 40 on the ruler...is 40 inches....Needless to say, I was SO livid when they pulled that big one out that I called my good little friend Officer DeCamp and filed a report, St. George Police incident number 09p007997.
The only good thing was that ALL, and I mean ALL the kids were across the street playing ball when the officer pulled up beside them. Of course none of them admitted anything but I hope it at least scared the crap out of them (ironically speaking). Two of the juvenile delinquent boys that live right beside us seemed especially interested in what was happening. The sad thing is, I KNOW they did it but I have no way of proving it.
I hope everyone's Friday night date night was better then mine...I spend my Friday night with 3 plumbers cracks and huge bill.
