Well, this was novel! The kitchen sink backed up. In the sixteen years I've been at this address, this had never happened.
The weird chum flowing from the sink had a weird texture. It wasn't just greasy; it was waxy. Does grease turn into wax after months or years in a pipe? I dunno.
Plunging and snaking didn't work, and a first dose of drain cleaner didn't work, so it was off to Target to get more. Hours after a second dose, the drain finally cleared.
Apparently I had sewer drainage issues too. There was evidence of a spill that went unnoticed last week.
Spring is the usual season when these things happen.
