I know this is minor, but could I have some patented lounge vibes please?

*sigh*

You all will probably think that I am silly for complaining about this...but here goes.

I was in my upstairs bathroom this morning, sitting on the toilet, reading a 1987 copy of "Woman's World". I've had a moisture problem around the base of the toilet, that due to nothing more than sheer laziness, I have neglected to fix. Well, the moisture caused the floor around the toilet to rot....and the toilet fell through the floor while I was sitting on it. I've put on a few pounds recently, so the force of the fall caused the toilet, with me on top of it, to fall all the way through the basement.

The toilet came to rest in the basement without shattering to pieces (thank goodness), but I think I may have damaged my coccyx, slightly.

On the way down, the toilet broke a gas line, causing a large flame to shoot out about 6 feet from the point of the break. I am relatively OK from that event, but I am slightly singed around the head, neck, chest, nipple and armpit areas.

The flame did, however, manage to completely incinerate my prized possession. A pristine condition Honus Wagner baseball card valued at $1.5 million.

Any good thoughts you can send my way would sure be appreciated.

1. My thoughts are with you

during this difficult time. I'm sure there is a lesson to be learned here somewhere.

It may have something to do with Women's World, but I'm not sure. I'll have to give it some deep and meaningful thoughts...

oh look a squirrel!

4. Your poor dear!

I'm lighting a candle for you.

The purpose being two-fold. One, you're a guy and were in the bathroom, I believe that says it all. And hey, you asked for additional vibes, and now you've got them.

Oh wait, maybe a candle isn't the best idea! Oh well, I tried.

Buena Suerte!
