Another plumbing-related issue

Not long after I spoke with my landlady about the washing machine, I was flushing my toilet (only toilet) and the handle came off in my hand.  Immediately, the rod attached to the handle sank into the bowels (ha ha) of the toilet.  It is still flushable — see ingenious McGuyver-like flushing apparatus — but, not optimal.  I was and still am embarrassed to tell her something else has broken!  This one was definitely not my fault. I have the names of two plumbers, so hopefully it will be fixed by the time YOU come to visit me!

Fingers crossed everything else remains operational!
