Well tonight was a hell of a night. I noticed the weather getting bad outside and then the rain started POURING down. Probably 30 minutes later I look out the window and notice the street is flooded higher than its ever been flooded. I was thinking "holy crap that's gonna reach the door to my house." A little more time passes and I keep hearing this strange tapping outside my door. Since I live in a creepy house I was thinking oh it could be something scary so I stayed in my room. Then I noticed something seeping through the bottom of my door.... could it be ... BLOOD?

Hardly. It was water. Water that was backed up from the street gushing into my house at every wave that crashed into the back door to my house (right next to my bedroom). On further examination I noticed when I walked to the corner of my room the carpet was soggy. Oh wonderful. Now those bastards are infiltrating at all angles!

So I start thinking, what can I do to combat the situation. Towels? Pft. Sandbags? where the hell would I get em? Shamwow? ...hell yes! So I grab the shamwow out of the kitchen, take it to my room and start pounding away at the carpet. I filled my little trash can half full with water! Those shamwows are pretty good. After a while though I was getting tired. So I opted for the little shop vac I had, then I noticed it was spitting out half as much water as it was sucking in so I eventually went to a combo of the shamwow to suck up the water that the shop vac was spitting out.

All in all, I think the shamwow saved the day. But now I'm sleeping with my fan on full blast and moved half the shit in my bedroom to another room of the house. Ugh, I just hope it doesn't get moldy >_<
