I think I'm the single biggest threat to the house's survival, not to mention improvement. Public enemy number one.
I arrived at the house yesterday to find a bit of an ad-hoc sprinkler set up in the back yard. I had left the hose on, and it spontaneously burst open. A quick look at the water meter revealed that about 2,000 gallons had escaped. A closer, more acurate look with the decimal point in the right place, showed 20,000 gallons, or about two swimming pools of water. The leak was about 400 gallons per hour, which means that the hose must have burst open pretty much just after we left two days ago.
And what would a house story be without water in the basement? Puddles and flows on the floor formed models of every geographic configuration imaginable. We had continents, peninsulas, islands, sounds, inlets. Reservoirs turned into mudslides and tidal floods as tools and wires were moved to higher ground. Fault lines rumbled as we shifted tectonic pressures stepping from content to continent.
I turned on the dehumidifier and left. It's typhoon season, hopefully followed by a apocalyptic drought.
