Lowes hooked up a new washer/dryer combo, but when I ran it the water backed up. I went to clean it up and got electrocuted somehow.

My hand is fucked but my heart is OK, so I got out lucky. Spent the whole day in the hospital and I’m dreading the bill (thanks USA). So much for my plans of gaming over the holiday - can’t do much with one hand.

The breaker to that room is off and I’m keeping the pets out until an electrician can come.

My bestie is a lawyer. I’m not talking to anyone until I talk to her.

Edit: She referred me to a personal injury lawyer

Oh, so she’s a real lawyer; one who knows about specialties.

Sounds like that hospital bill is gonna get taken care of for you, and I don’t think you’re gonna need to worry about having time to play video games while you recover from being nearly manslaughtered. I’m glad you’re still with us, bud!
