Not much time to blog. I have done absolutely nothing of substance today, and my physics grade is
far from where I want it to be, so I should go soon. #3 is going to be harder than I thought...
Yesterday morning, my faucet exploded. No, really! I was minding my own business, getting ready for school, same thing I do every morning. I turn the tap for the cold water at my bathroom sink, and the [part you turn] comes off in my hand, and water starts shooting up in the air!!! It was all still pressurized, so it went pretty high. I wasn't wearing my glasses at the time, so I couldn't really see. All I knew was that there was water everywhere. So, my panic response kicks in, and I run out of the bathroom and upstairs to get my dad. I am
beyond glad that he had the day off. He turned out to be downstairs already, so he shut off the water.
How was I supposed to know what those things under the sink are for? Turns out that the shutoff valves are right there. How can anyone expect me to
think at a time like that? So anyway, I finished getting ready upstairs, and managed to dry my hair enough to mostly salvage it. Sure, my hair needed washing (did it this morning -- took forever, as always), but I didn't mean like
that! I was already running late, and fighting with my soggy hair only made matters worse.
::sighs:: Why me? On the bright side, I have a shiny new faucet on my sink, and my bathroom rugs got washed. Somehow, that doesn't seem to make up for it. I'm still nervous every time I turn on the cold water. ::glares at reader:: Quit laughing! It was
not funny! Okay, maybe it was a
little funny, but still...
Hope has a new layout (at least since the last time I saw it), and a new guestbook. Same host as mine, but hers is cooler. I love blogs, and blogging, and blog-hopping. Case in point: the recently extended blog section of my linkage over there.
Okay, gotta run. Must do ::sigh:: homework. Ttfn. =)
