The kitchen sink clogged yesterday. It was badly clogged. The people living on the other side of our kitchen wall were also effected as we heard their garbage disposal go and watch the water level in our sink rise. Jeremy pulled out the siphon he just happened to buy a couple weeks ago and averted the danger of overflowing for us and our neighbor. Meanwhile, I walked over to their apartment to tell them to stop running the garbage disposal and water through the pipes as it is obviously doing nothing.
Jeremy and I then went to the store where we picked up a large bottle of draino. Neither of us had ever had to use draino before, and there were specific instructions in the fine print for garbage disposal clogs. We worked on in throughout the evening but still, nothing except a slightly more pleasant chemical-smell of the draino rather than the contents of both apartment's garbage disposals. Just as we were turning off the lights in the kitchen to go to bed Jeremy and I heard the best sound: "Swoosh, gurgle, gurgle." We looked over, IT WAS CLEAR!
There will be many big milestones in our marriage, but I like to think this was a small milestone. :)

Yeah, draino can take a while to kick in. I'm glad it worked.
