and into a lake last night!!!
it was about midnight...and i stepped out of bed to check the loo bc i heard water running....
and running it was!!!
there was about 3 inches all over the floor in our bedroom and the bedroom on the other side of the loo!!!!!
apparently with all the rain and the septic needed pumping it was FULL and there was a little leak in the toilet and the water had no where to go...so it kept running...right onto the floor....both toilets...from the shower drain.....
the great part is that somehow it seemed clean...clear no smell....
so, it wasn't as gross as it might sound....
the landlord manager fellow is great....this afternoon we had septic folks sucking out the tank and carpet cleaners pumping out water (100 gallons they said) and fans running everywhere....
the funny part is that i wondered if i'd feel a little self conscious when they lifted the septic top...i mean, it IS a little like if you happen to leave some floaters in the loo and then someone finds it before you....you know they realize that came from you =)
but i didn't skip a beat...i reasoned that it was much like a breast doctor, it really isn't a huge deal for them to check out your bits and pieces...they've seen plenty and it is their job (right?? =))
and the same for septic folks...they've seen a whole lot of poop and loo roll in their lives...
i actually learned a lot from the whole experience...tommy the septic fellow explained the process of tanks and pumps and drain fields and alarms and types of water....jack and i were truly fascinated...
