I got woke up by Carol an hour and a half ago. The water in the toilet won't shutoff, it just keeps running. I was sound asleep. I had no idea what time it was. Those of you that know me know that I am not a "hardware guy" - whether it's computers or otherwise. No matter what I do, I can't get the float valve to actually close in the toilet. It's maddening. An hour into the ordeal, I give up. In the past, repeated flushings would eventually get the valve to close. Not tonight. We just let the water run. And then, I couldn't take the sound of the running water anymore! So, back into the tank to attempt to move things around a bit, check some seals. Nothing. Flush, flush, flush... still running... the water seems to be entering the tank at the base of the valve as well as through the filler hose... I just want it to end... I give up still again. I'm getting that weird feeling when you've been up way too long, the burning eyes, the weird "sour stomach"... I need to go downstairs and watch some TV and maybe I'll get fatigued enough to pass out and go to sleep. I get downstairs, sit on the couch, turn on the TV... and the water stops. By itself. The picture tube never warmed-up for a picture. Damn - good sleep time ripped away from me in the middle of the night...
