Down the Crapper

Well a couple nights ago I was ending my Alaskan adventure. We were staying our last night in an Anchorage hotel. My sister and my Cousin and I were sharing a room. The room was pretty big but it was really weird. Alright I am getting sidetracked back to the story. So I decided to take a shower, when I went to set my glasses down I realized that the sink was in the hall way- woops to late for that. So I didn't want to set them on the floor because without my glasses I am blind as a bat, and I didn't want to step on them. The only other spot to put them was on the back of the toilet. I went to put the cover down, and their wasn't a cover. What kind of toilet doesn't have a cover!? But I had no choice. So I put them their. I took my shower and I came out grabbed a towel and flushed the toilet came out of the shower and though oh no where are my glasses. I couldn't find them anywhere. My Aunt and Uncle came in and they couldn't find them either. There was only one place they could have gone- yep folks that right. The toilet. So we all took turns trying to get them out. We used shopping bags as gloves but we couldn't find them. So the next morning we had the maitenence man come and see if he could get them. He put a snake thingy in the toilet and managed to find half of my glasses broken and twisted with no lenses. Crap. I am so blind without them. So for the past three days I have been going around blind, we are finally home and I have an eye appointment tomorrow. Finally I can see again!

I realized how much I take eye sight for granted, and believe me I wont ever do that again. But out of all the advice you hear, let this be the most important one you remember- don't ever flush your glasses down the crapper!
