But aside from that, she's still completely normal

Toes are Useless

June 27, 2008 By Michele 2 Comments

I know I said I had a BlogHer disclaimer coming…  Instead I’m going to tell you about my morning.

‘Cause where else am I going to complain?

We’ve been having issues the last week with our water heater.  As in it deciding not to heat water whenever it wants to.  It’s a game now!  Ohhhh Hot Water!  Nope never mind.  Add showers, baths, dishes, and laundry – and the points that the heater is making in this game is just nuts!  So – Poe informed me this morning that there was no hot water, so I would need to shower at my parents house.

Ugh.

I love them, but somewhere along the line they turned into older folks, and they have lots of stuff.  Everywhere.  In the shower, out of the shower, on every surface.  Anyway – I’m in the shower shampooing my hair, soapy and all that, and I bumped into something and it flew off the wall and onto the 4th toe of my left foot.  My parents were still sleeping and so I did a very soapy silent scream.

And that’s how I came to have a very bruised swollen bloody toe, and $450 poorer for a freakin’ water heater today.

    I can so imagine screaming silently while hopping around the shower. Gotta love it.
