The not so exciting conclusion

At the end of my last blog I was awaiting Sam's arrival and listening to the water flow from the not so small leak in our shower.  Just a few minutes after posting that blog Sam came home and found a way to turn off the water.  The only problem was that he had to turn off all of the water in our apartment.  So there we were again without water and not really knowing when things would get fixed.  This morning I asked Sam to give our landlady a call and let her know that we wanted it fixed today, not just "looked at".  I think he had a good effect on her because she said that she would come by after work.  Not long after she came her husband and a plumber arrived to survey the situation.  A few hours later and one trip to the store (they went, not me) everything was back to normal.  After cleaning up the mess left from the plumber I took a shower. It was fabulous.  It wasn't as if I had gone very long without a shower but just the thought that I couldn't take one made me feel dirtier.  

And that is the not so exciting conclusion.  Hope you've been mildly entertained. At the very least perhaps you'll think of me next time you turn on your faucet.
