Hold off on the rubber gloves



My wife sent me an e-mail today, something along the lines of:

the toilet is now unblocked!
I won't give you any more details ....


Brilliant!

Needless to say part of me wants to find out what happened (and hopes that she'll say that she flushed it and it was ok) while another part of me is scared in case she says something else (involving rolling her shirt up to her elbow)

I did what all men would do. I went in and flushed it. Why? I mean it's not like she would make that up.

hehe! Wanted to make sure it was working, weren't you?

So what was it that was in there and how did she get it out? I think plungers work great. They're just kind of gross to use.

yeah.. anything that involves poking something into the toilet is completely gross. My big fear with the plunger is a massive "backwash" of gunge, an image created in my mind after watching too many Laurel and Hardy movies when I was younger.

You know, she still hasn't told me what was in there and maybe I'm better off not knowing. On the other hand my 4 year-old does appear to be missing one or two Matchbox cars :-)
