I know what your thinking. "there can't be a tree in your toliet" But alas I ask is this the first time you've read my blog cause if it isn't then you would know that if it isn't completely ridiculous then it can't possibly be my life. No hair clogs here, why would there be when you could have tree roots instead. This is all what I learned last night and well REALLY early this morning when the people were out here to fix my bathroom.
First off I can't help but say that at first when the people showed up I was a little fighten of them, but then really who am I to judge those who are comming out to fix the toliet at 11pm. They turned out to be nice enought, though I think one of them was a little speical. The guy who knew what he was doing seemed super honest. I think this because he wanted to show me everything. Which honestly would have been ok with just about anything else, but seriously did need to see piles of roots mixed with poo at midnight. I would even venture to be that I could have made it through my whole life without ever having seen it. The special guy was tottally all over the place it was sooo funny. He kept leaving doors open, and he set of the alarm on their truck every single time he went out to it. It was all kind of funny. He talked a lot and repeated just about everything the first guys said.
Anyways the guy said that there is a pipe crushed outside, and there is tree roots growing all up in the shit. He fixed it for the time being, but it turns out the toliet still only kind of works cause there is something in the toliet that won't come out. Which is awesome. Kind of curious as to what that might be cause i don't often just flush random stuff down my toliet, but anyways it worked last night so I got to go to the bathroom. This morning was a whole different story.
I tried to go to the bathroom and it wouldn't really flush well again. Then I decided that I better take a shower otherwise I might loose the chance. The water would not drain again so I showered in water up to my ankles. At least it was semi clean water, ish still gross though. Now I'm trying to do laundry and we are tottally back where we started because all the water is comming back up my shower again. Which I kind of thought might happen, but I couldn't not do laundry because I seriously have no clean clothes. Well I guess at least there is not shit water in my shower, but I am slightly annoyed because I JUST CLEANED the damn bathroom. And anyone who knows me knows that I REALLY REALLY don't like to clean. Uggh seriously I have to go find somewhere to pee now, so hopefully things get fixed soon.

Is a working toliet too much to ask
Apparently this is the case because I currently have niether a working toliet or shower. I mean I guess technically speaking I guess they both function in mostly the way they are suppose to except for the part when they don't really drain. And that other part were any time anyone upstairs in the other four appartments uses the bathroom or toliet everything comes out my shower and toliet. Which let me tell you is the super most awesome thing in the world. If you thought there was something out there that was better than just not being able to use the toliet well then look out because having someone else shit come out of your shower is just soooooooo much better. I hardly think you will be able to contain your own excitement.
When it first started yesterday morning I didn't think much of it. I was in the shower and the water wouldn't drain, but ah no big deal right. Its a little gross to me but whatever I'm late for work anyways so no time for that. Well that was until I got turned the shower off and was like why is there still water running. Of course those of you who know me know I can't see without my glasses, and though I used to take a shower with my glasses on I found I had to stop after awhile because its harder to was your face that way. So what I learned once I could see what that the water that wasn't drainging was actually overflowing out of my toliet. good times right.. I asure you it was. So first though is fuck now i'm really going to be late for work (though I'm not really sure why I think it will take my only 20 min to shower and get dressed anyways because it never really works)..
Anyways I went to my room to you know get dress and away from all the water, and by the time I came back it all went away. I don't know where it went but I think well shit I really didn't have time to clean it up anyways, so fuck it, I don't own the place. So I make it work and call the landpeople. I get a call out that says someone will be out at some point which was in fact not yesterday.
Moving on.. this morning I wake up to bubbling water sounds, and since i don't have an automatic bubble machine making bubbles while I sleep I was a bit concerned. So turns out someone upstairs was showering and everything was comming up my toliet and shower again, only much more gross looking with browness and chunks of stuff. Very pleasant. Needless to say I could not shower which rocked because my hair was literally sticking straight up. Anyways I bursh my teeth then I throw up, because it was nasty in there, and I might have forgotten to take my allergy meds yesterday. Got dress, sported some pigtails, and went to work. Called the apartment people and was like yeah someone needs to fix this today.
So I get a call on my way home from work. Its the guy who fixes the stuff, and something about the plummer was there but he left. He thought he was going to come back but apparently didn't. So great now I can't even use the shower or toliet even a little bit. Mostly at this point the toliet was what was worry some cause I had to pee. So what did i have to do but go knock on the neighbors door and be like "hi I'm brandi. I live downstairs can I use your bathroom" It was great really really great. I don't even like people. Ugh. Well I don't know what his name is but he turned out to be very nice which isn't bad. He does have a nicer stove than me which I learned he doesn't use. Its still small though, so that made me feel better.
Anyways if you ever want to hang out and not have a place to go to the bathroom then really my house is the place. Well even though its after ten the guy who fixes things(I think his name is ryan are you seeing a pattern here) called and said someone should be out in like a half hour, so maybe it will be fixed tonight.

A trip to france
I know that you've all been wondering what exactly I've been doing with this my week and a half long vacation. I know your all very interested because I get asked like 57 times a day what my plans are. As no one seems to be down with my plan-less vacation.
Well today M and I took a little trip down the French Rivera. We rode bike down nice coble stone parkways. It was a very enjoyable way to spend a few hours. Ok maybe we were only gone for like an hour, but either way it was a good time. Really nothing compares to riding your bike for the first time (even though you bought it six years ago), in the nice calming breeze of the French Rivera. It felt kind of like in a movie. I wanted to go to Italy or maybe England in the late 1800's, but alas there now that I got my bike back, and well lets face it put some air in the tires, there will now be lots of bike trips around the world. I even went wearing a dress, because well what else would one wear to bike the beaches of France. Well I'll keep you posted on where else I travel on my plan-less vacation
