More Bad Timing

I just woke up to find that my bathtub drain isn’t working. It could be the last bit of really cold winter, I guess, but more likely it’s from me shedding more hair than a large English Sheepdog. I really DO try to keep it cleaned up before it hits the drain, but you know how it is…

Anyhow. Drain is clogged. Really really clogged. I have no Draino. I’ll put that on my list of things to get after work. For now, though, no shower. Normally this would be no problem, since there are showers at work. Unfortunately I have NO FREAKING WAY to get into the building this early, since my fob is on my daily keychain. In my car. At the garage. With no gas tank. Normally even THIS would be no problem…I’d just go in when the building opened, be ready later and stay later. But today I have an interview at 8am.

Seriously, this bad luck stuff sucks, doesn’t it???

How about a coat hanger? For pulling hair out of the drain. If you try it though, be warned it’s pretty gross.

oooo…that’s a good idea. I’ll have to remember that for the next time!!! Either that or I need to shave my head.

I just spent a week with Draino and my clogged up drain didn’t get any better. In an act of total desperation I used the plunger and yes, it was totally gross what came up, but it fixed my drain problem!

Kathy, it’s beginning to scare me how much we are alike. I did the plunger thing too, but in my case it didn’t work. It did however, clog the rest of my plumbing system so my toilet backed up… What a glorious morning that was. :)
