Hand-washing woes

So, things in my life are certainly never boring. Last week I got stuck in the library with a dead cell phone and no way to call my parents to pick me up and no way to get home (I don't drive manual cars - which of course is what my parents drive). Luckily then I had wireless internet connection, my laptop, and facebook to help me out. This week, today, was washing clothes by hand.

Now my mom and stepdad have a washing machine, of course. But I like to wash/rinse out my bathing suits by hand... and seeing as how we live by the ocean, I am at the beach fairly often. We used to have a stone basin to hand wash clothes in the laundry room... you know, the kind with the ribbed side to do some hard core scrubbing. Well my stepdad recently replaced that one for a normal sink. Little did I know that the pipes to this normal sink were not in place.... therefore, rinsing out my bikini resulted in a flooded laundry room (of course I caught on to what was happening quickly, but you know how water just spreads.. even when it's only a little).

Bah....that's what I get for not paying attention I suppose.
