During the Halloween Party, the toilet in our hall bathroom starting leaking. That makes two toilets out of commission, one to go. I sincerely hope Darwin fixes the hall toilet before we have to find out what it was really like to live at the turn of the century. We’re pinning a lot of hopes on that one remaining toilet.

Of course, today when he went to the local hardware store to get a new wax ring, the store was closed. So silly of us. Today’s Thursday, the day when every business and government office in Eutaw takes a little breather in the afternoon. I don’t know who started that custom or why, but it’s really getting on my nerves.

    I know not being able to get a wax ring when you really need it is, well, crappy, but I think your town’s practice of shutting down on Thursday afternoons is really neat–Tidy Bowl neat, actually…

    Don’t let you town lose that custom–once gone, you’ll never see it again.

    It is slightly charming, but somehow we always end up needing something in town on Thursday afternoon.
