Well I had one of the most disgusting experiences ever this morning. So I'll tell you about it. I woke up and had an English paper due in 2 hrs; no prob, only 1 page single-spaced and I'd already thought about what I wanted to say. Then the toilet downstairs decides to overflow. And it wasn't just toiletwater. So here I am literally screaming in disgust trying to figure out what to do, thinking towels? do we have any old towels? no, no old towels, no paper towels, i'm not gonna get this paper done in time, ah! So I drive like a maniac down to Walgreen's, buy 6 rolls of paper towels, rush back and get the problem under control. Then I'm supposed to sit down and write a nice paper about a Flannery O'Connor story.
Well sure enough I wrote a paper it but I was 15 min. late to class. After class I apologized to my prof. He said it was okay. By way of excuse I told him it had something to do with a "bad toilet situation."
"Please," he says, "don't tell me about it."
So I decided to tell you about it. Okay?
