what a difference a day makes...

The day started out great and then I worked and that sucked but no more than usual really, but it ended fucking awful. We're all tired, and I'm a little weepy, and did I mention we're exhausted?

I'm exhausted anyway, being close to that TIMEOFTHEMONTH, the one where I want to stab the innocent, but ack. We had a huge flood all over the brand new floor. The brand new floor, the one I've wanted since forever! I hope to god it doesn’t warp or mildew…anyway, We schlepped water out of here like slavs, and wiped and dried and cursed and would have rended our garments BUT THEY WERE TOO FUCKING SOGGY TO TEAR. God, if I knew we were going to have such shit, I would have never gotten out of bed this morning. Thank goodness my morning started so well…sigh.

Anyhoo, congratulations to my beloved [livejournal.com profile] supercaptain182, on winning [livejournal.com profile] mahaliem's maybe annual Memorial Day Weekend Smallville Drabble Contest! All the entries were excellent and great fun to read! Congratulations to everyone! You guys, you're so cool!

In other news, I'm looking over the responses to my meme I guess about my fics and I'm liking the ideas I'm getting for some responses. I will definitely work on an idea or two! Love you guys so much!

Aww, that sucks about the flood!

We had a flood at my house once but it wasn't on a new floor. It sucked, but nowhere near your level!!

I hope everything dries okay.

*HUG*

Ah, thanks--i'm so worried about buckling and mildew. *sigh* We Roses just can't have nice things. *POUT*

Aw, Roxy I'm sorry. That's super-annoying, especially with a new floor :(

Thanks so much my dear. I wanted to share my frustration, but I keep looking at your icon and it's making me feel all awwwwww...*g*

*shnuggles* Thanks you lovey, me too! *sniffles*

I hope the floor is okay! Do you have dehumidifiers you can run?

[identity profile] roxymissrose.livejournal.com 2008-05-27 06:14 am (UTC)(link)
Thank you! We don't have dehumidifiers, but we've been running fans on the floor( i just shut them off now) and I hope it helps. Not as much water ran under the appliances as I was afraid, so I'm hoping that there's not a lot under the laminate. Hard to believe that way water was shooting out of that pipe! I thought I was going to drown! *g*

Baaaaaaaaaah!!!
*hugs you tight*

I dunno what the weather's like, but fans. Train fans on your floor and run them to help get the moisture out.

It should be okay, though, if you got it stopped/cleaned up that soon.
*hugs more*

[identity profile] roxymissrose.livejournal.com 2008-05-27 02:56 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm going to run the fans again today and I'm going to keep doing it until Mr. Roxy takes the fans away...heh!
*HUGHUG*

Awww, sweetie, I just saw this. I know exactly how sucky this must have been. I am so, so sorry and hope that the damage wasn't too horrible.

*hugs you very hard*

*clings and sighs*

Yeah, small parts here and there are starting to buckle, but hopefully, it won't be a real big fix. I pouted all day yesterday, and I'm better about it now. Could have been much, much worse--what if we hadn't home when it happened? *shudders* Now *that* would have been a nightmare!
