Thank goodness I'm not single. Erik has been gone for a week and I already encountered my first man-job mishap!
I was showering before work and my tub started to fill up. The water was up above my ankles!! So I get out, and dump in some draino that we had for clogged drains. The water did not move - it was just sitting there. I tried plunging the drain - nothing! So I left it with the door closed (so my cat wouldn't go for a mid-day swim in draino) and the fan on. I get home and check the drain - NOTHING its STILL STANDING THERE!! UGH!! I try one last plunge for good measure then it's time to go in - I go in search of a wire hanger (I must insert a mommy dearest "no wire hangers" joke here). I un-wrap the hanger and try to stick in down the drain. I can't even get the wired hanger down the drain!! AAAAHHHHHHH!! Where is a man when you need him. My next thought was Im ust stick my hand in the drano water to see if something is lodged in there...
THE DRAIN WAS CLOSED!!!!!!! SERIOUSLY - FREAKING CLOSED!!!!! I pull up and twist the drain and the water drains in about 35 seconds. Mission accomplished...
