water-flow problemdog aroma
The updated bathroom had this drain doing a slow-motion water show. It, like, refused to cooperate. and the internet? more like an 'internet, maybe later' situation. plus, a faint dog aroma lingered, a testament to the canine residents, so i basically kept the window open the entire time, even when it got a little chilly. guess fresh air beats eau de chien, always.
