A plumbing problem And Montezuma’s Revenge With broken toilet Water it did rise The family jewels it did surprise At the hospital It was bad enough Adding insult to injury Dunkin’ the ole boys He dried himself off Back to bed he went to wait While clenching his cheeks Get a riser seat That will keep him high and dry Soon or need clean sheets. |

A plumbing problem And Montezuma’s Revenge With broken toilet Reaching from behind Pulling the handle to flush Then watching it rise Water it did rise The family jewels it did surprise At the hospital A floater massage One could surely live without Seated on whirlpool It was bad enough Adding insult to injury Dunkin’ the ole boys A septic salute All rise to the occasion Including you boys He dried himself off Back to bed he went to wait While clenching his cheeks His built-in depth gauge May have been a bit too short Next time use dipstick Get a riser seat That will keep him high and dry Soon or need clean sheets. Roto-Rooter man Arriving after the fact Has a longer snake ...just bein' Bluesy |

Haha! Well it didn't 'go down' quite like that. The water was clean, it didn't come close to over flowing when flushed, but for some reason the water level had raised. (As he so rudely realized.) He quickly stood up, still needing to go. I suggested the riser seat because I figured it'd be easier/quicker to get than a maintenance man on a weekend. I appreciate you joining in my fun ![]() |

I went home at noon to pick up some things and take a break from grumpy. Don't really blame him for being mad about it and some other things that have happened, but him having his panties in a wad all day is a waste of precious energy.He needs to take his chill pill. If he can get down enough calories today they will let him go home Monday afternoon. ~L |

I do hope it all works out so that both of you have some peace. But it sounds like the load has mostly been on you, Miss Lori...but storms make trees take deeper roots, and I see you as a towering oak. I think others see you this way as well. ...peace, my friend. ![]() ...just bein' Bluesy |
