Jolly Good Time

Are you looking for a way to squash the daily doldrums of life? Well, you're in luck! I have a most appropriate suggestion for you to spice up your life.

It begins by discovering that your toilet has been slowly leaking for an unknown length of time, thus ruining your bathroom floor.

THEN have your husband lose all common sense for a moment and begin tearing up the floor without any plan in place.  It's crucial that he doesn't have a plan or a way to dispose of the flooring.

AND THEN, in a completely unrelated event, have a water pipe burst in your ceiling the following week.  This will give you a wonderful light-fixture-waterfall.

AND THEN live in a hotel room for a week.  With a 2-month-old baby.  The baby is the crucial piece.

AND THEN, once the leak is repaired, have your husband get back to work on the floor.  He must cut a hole in your bedroom floor to remove a section of damaged subfloor and then leave the hole gaping open with no safety perimeter around it.   

AND THEN go into your bedroom when it's dark, forget about the hole, and fall directly into the abyss.  It's crucial that you land on a copper pipe, crush it with your girth, and smash your foot through the living room ceiling. You'll enjoy the resulting bruising to your leg.

AND THEN, once the plumber comes to fix the disaster, make the silly decision to go ahead and replace the rest of the floors in your entire house.  You know, as long as you're already in the mess.

Doesn't that sound magical?

Well, what are you waiting for?  Go get after it!
