lest you overflow the bathtub, leading to a flood of the apartment directly below you, ie me. good thing i was home, otherwise the floor below me might be getting flooded too.

thanks for reminding me

it could have been the toilet.
i was working with a patient in a makeshift clinic in new orleans.
drip, "that's weird" drip drip, "heh, don't worry about it.new clinic and all"...
then a downpour onto my head from an overflowed toilet above.
mmmm, fecal matter.

At least you had all that surgical-tubing and all those tongue-depressors around... Tinfoil might have been hard to come by, though.
