Mystery Unsolved

June 25, 2009 by Lauren 19 Comments

Remember back in November when we had the mystery liquid on the basement floor, and it turned out to be Rain-x in the closet upstairs that was dripping on the floor? Well, a couple of weeks ago I noticed that the closet floor was wet again, but didn’t know why. My best guess was that the Rain-X had seeped into the walls and floors and was just being squeezed out by ghosts or something.

Well, today there was another puddle on the basement floor! What the what?? I went up to check the closet, and there was a giant wet mess in there.

Good freakin' grief.

Turns out that it is a bag of ice melt crystals that has mutated somehow. I don’t know what the deal is, but this is no good.

They leaked out the bag, and the inside of the container is wet.  They're the same stuff.

I have contained the crystals so they can cause no further damage, but if anyone can explain this mystery to me – I’m all ears.

So is Cricket.

Cricket is not amused.
