Communication
Write to me

You know your day at work at a law firm is going to be a little on the different side when one of the first conversations you have has you replying, "That's all right, I speak sewer."

That was made to Wendy's comment that she didn't know much about sewer lines since she's used to dealing with septic systems. I've always lived in places where there were municipal sewer systems.

She did indeed ask me to speak sewer at least once today, in the context of the office complex sewer problems. But it turns out apparently the language we need to be speaking is pump, as in that which moves the sewage up to the main line from the buildings in the office complex.

I hope the problem can be corrected soon. So far, only the building next door is affected, but that could easily change.

A worsening of the problem would lead to many more upset people. Hmm...maybe I shouldn't have been so quick to delete a piece of spam that came in this weekend: "All You Can Eat --- Tranquilizers."

If I get it again, I'll read it. Maybe they have recipes!
