Well, my new year rang in with a blast ... of turds and septic water that is. Tuesday night, my sewage system backed up into the house and just about flooded out the first floor  .
So, I've been cleaning and repairing ever since Tuesday night. Haven't been able to shower, crap or run water at my own house since. Turns out, I have a busted pipe somewhere out in my front yard; about 5 feet below the surface. All due to the 40 foot oak tree and it's damn roots. I say, kill all the trees!
Anyway, I have to shell out somewhere in the neighborhood of 4 g's to have someone dig it up and fix it. So, if anyone would like to contribute to the 'Help Dave take a shit' fund, it would be appreciated 
That's my rant for the week ... plumbers cost too damn much, trees suck, I've desecrated my parents bathroom this week a few times, I'm oficially poor ... but it still beats the apartment I used to live in. Isn't home ownership grand (four grand)?
P.S. Just kiding about the donation part, I just thought it would be funny to say.
Peace,
Dave

Homo-owners said that it would cover any damages - not repairs to the sewer line ... fuckers. However, I can now prove that it was caused by the tree so I'm going to call them back tonight. We'll see ... I REALLY hope they cover it, if not, I'm fucked.

| Hey Dave, I really feel for ya man. The same thing happened at my house a few years ago. Yes, it definitely sucks a bigass donkey dick! DNREC had to come to my house and check out the property and do a perk test. Wonderful thought, how well does your ground soak up the obnoxious refuse! Sorry your new year started out shitty (pardon the pun). |

Well ... some slightly good news. This is concidered a 'pre-existing condition.' Since my wife and I just bought this house in October, we can legally go after the seller because it wasn't on the disclosure sheet.
We'll see.
