Leaky toilet
Ben and I made our first fixer-upper oriented trip to Home Depot today in search of parts to silence our leaky toilet. As we were debating the pros and cons of two alternative flapper systems, a man in a green "Plumber" T-shirt walked by and said "definitely get this kit, you have no idea how many of that other kind I have to replace." So we followed his instructions.
Now Ben is up to his elbows in smelly stagnant water, nearly done with the repairs, while I sip sherry, pet the cats, read home improvement blogs, and daydream about all the other projects "we" could do. Poor Ben.
