It started yesterday when,
after flushing the toilet,
I noticed water seeping all around the toilet bowl.
“This is not good,” said Bunny,
as she inspected the growing puddle of water.
“Let's cut off the water to this thing,
and deal with it tomrrow.
Looks like we're going to have to replace the wax ring.”
Cut to—today.
Water disconnected,
I pull the toilet off the floor revealing the horrible remains of a wax ring.
Bunny then scrapped the remains up,
and we replaced the wax ring with a non-wax ring that should last longer.
We get the toilet back in place,
secured it down,
hooked the water up and hey!
Looks like no more water.
Until there was.
It appears that it may not have been the wax ring at all,
but the seals around the … um … bit
(I have no idea what it's called)
that regulates the water into the tank.
Water is pouring out of the tank at the location the water pipe is connected to the toilet.
I swear,
this toilet is cursed!
You have my permission to link freely to any entry here. Go
ahead, I won't bite. I promise.
The dates are the permanent links to that day's entries (or
entry, if there is only one entry). The titles are the permanent
links to that entry only. The format for the links are
simple: Start with the base link for this site: https://boston.conman.org/, then add the date you are
interested in, say 2000/08/01,
so that would make the final URL:
https://boston.conman.org/2000/08/01
You can also specify the entire month by leaving off the day
portion. You can even select an arbitrary portion of time.
You may also note subtle shading of the links and that's
intentional: the “closer” the link is (relative to the
page) the “brighter” it appears. It's an experiment in
using color shading to denote the distance a link is from here. If
you don't notice it, don't worry; it's not all that
important.
