Default "Oh What a Beautiful Morning".............NOT!!!

So, I figured I'd start my day with a large double-double from Timmy's. I hop in the wife's car and off I go. Half way there I notice the fuel gauge blinking at me, warning 15 km of fuel left. No biggie; Timmy's is only three blocks away. I pick up my double-double and head for home. You can see where this is going: On the last corner from my house, sure as hell I run out of gas. #%@$!!!
So I trek the rest of the way, grab a gas can from the garage and get the car home.
Time for the fishie's breakfast of mysis, pellets and flakes. I feed the one tank, and while I'm feeding the other tank, my wife's food-fixated Beagle discovers the open can of fish flakes and decides she wants to sample them. She knocks the can over and eats all the flakes. Stupid dog!
Ok, time to clean the skimmer cup: Empty the cup; wipe down with a paper towel; flush towel and watch the toilet overflow. Nice! Grab the plunger and pump the snot out of it. No go. Don't know what's in there but it ain't moving. (Probably the Beagle's fault).
Now I'm off to the tool rental place to rent a snake. After that I might just go back to bed and try again tomorrow. FML

Lol. Don't forget while you are out getting the snake to put more gas on the car.

I ran out of gas in a Wendy's drive through once. Haha

Old keratinous wendy's server
"Sir Please pull ahead to the next window"

Myself
"Uhhh about that...."

If you want to irritate a whole bunch of obese people in a hurry get yourself stuck in a Wendy's drive through. Of course this happened when it was midnight and raining outside WHILE my cell phone was dead.

Do things go wrong in packets all the time for you Lance? I seem to have unlucky days every so often.

Good !

BTW, you should never put *anything* down a toilet but toilet paper (TP). TP is specially designed to break apart so it can't normally cause clogs. You can see this easily -just take a sheet of TP, drop it in and then stir it around with the toilet brush and you'll see it disintegrate.

Hope the rest of your day goes better !
