So, our basement flooded a few nights ago, no big deal. Barely got the floor wet. It was nuisance, but we put a new pipe in and all was fine again...

Or, so we thought.

I'm currently residing in the basement of my parents' house. ALL of my stuff is down there, including all of my snakes. Today, I head down the stairs thinking to take a nap for a couple hours... and find a half inch of water. The entire basement has flooded. Many of my clothes are soaked---the whites are ruined. Many of my books are ruined. My cat is trapped on top of my bed. Luckily, all of my snakes were elevated, for the most part. But now I'm worried about an electric short, and losing their heating.

Ugh... I seriously sat down on the stairs and cried. Everything I own is down there. Everything I own is soaked. Much of it is ruined. My furniture wasn't even spared.

So, yeah, guess I just needed to write it down... pretty upset about it still. But, gotta get to work.... thanks for listening.
