stickmakerWas planning to go shooting today. Among other things I wanted to test my first batch of .30 Carbine loads. However, when I went down into the basement to feed the cats I noticed an unpleasant odor. Thought maybe one of the felines had left something dead for me to find. When I went over to the shower to refill their water, though, I noticed there'd been a sewer burp through the floor drain.
I have to snake that line about once every two years. I'd noticed a minor burp about three weeks ago and ran some enzyme stuff down the drain which seemed to solve the problem. Unfortunately, not long-term. I snaked; no joy. I tried a garden hose running hot water straight from the heater. No joy. Tried the small end of the snake. No joy. Gave up and called a pro.
While waiting for them there have been two minor electrical flickers, both accompanied by remote booms.
Heh. The plumbers arrived while I was typing this and set right to work. And promptly lost the head off their power snake.
