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.

    Electricity is a total dice roll. I’m glad you were uninjured! I’ve been lucky enough to feel both 120V and 240V AC with no injury, but it was total luck. The 240V should have been my end, very scary stuff.
