I was ensconced upon the commode awaiting developments, while idly looking around the bathroom.

Worst vanity opening line ever.

Like your writing style - I read it in the Jean Shepard inner voice - It worked - nice story.

Your father insinuated you were too stupid to be his child. Then, rather than moving the table out from under the damaged portion of the ceiling, he and his friends continued their game.

Hoooooooookay....

At least you didn’t excerpt.

Pretty good, as far as blogs go, not bad...

I especially admire you for not getting electrocuted pumping water down there where there are lights and wires and volts and things!!!

Hint: Your writing skills vastly outweigh your exterminator skills!!
Buy some D-Con!!!

You write a bit like IowaHawk.

Wish the author had used “plaster” instead of “drywall”. It goes so much better with the cast iron bathtub era. But a good read anyway.
