on rain and poop

If you haven’t heard, Washington is under a teeny bit of water right now. It’s been raining off and on for days, with the “on” resembling conditions Noah faced while floating around on his ark with all those cute animals.

(Side note: I personally would like an ark full of kittens, puppies, baby cheetahs, and baby pandas, please. And a full-time pooper scooper. Just in case you want to get me a belated birthday present.)

The good news is that we live toward the top of a hill, so most of the water flows away fairly easily. The bad news is that we live in a basement, so we get a few hundred bucketfuls that never make it to the gutter.

Sometime this weekend, we noticed that our storage area flooded, which isn’t a huge deal because most things weren’t touching the floor. But then I noticed that water seeped into our back hallway, which is where we keep the kitty litter accouterments.

Before we discovered this, the cats apparently decided that wet carpeting was totally beneath them, and Hell No they are not stepping on it to get to their litter boxes and, and they would rather poop on the bathroom rug.

And so one of them did. And then Andrew stepped on it. And then I got to clean it. Awesome, I know.

  1. Yummy.

    Luckily, I haven’t had any problems with the rain - other than yeesterday’s shitty commute and my boss taking an hour of leave from me for being late even though I COULD NOT CONTROL IT (GRRRR!).

  2. At least it was him that stepped in it and not you?

    I’m trying to look for the bright side.

    Rain, Rain, Go Away…
