[123] my place got flooded
I woke up at 3:30am because I could hear water rushing and thought I'd left the tap on, but then I found out my living room had been flooded. Water was seeping through somehow and it had covered half my living room, the kitchen, the hallway in between, the main storage closet and parts of the washroom. Some asshole upstairs had clogged his sink and flooded his own condo along with mine and one other. The fucker didn't even know what he'd done because I was the one who notified security of the problem and that's when they investigated and found out what had happened.
The super came and drained the water around 4:30am, and I spent the next hour wiping down the floors and moving back the furniture. I can't tell how much of the storage closet has been flooded because it's so crammed with things, but I have to somehow assess the damage tomorrow morning. A lot of valuable items belonging to my parents are in there so I'm hoping nothing important has been ruined.
It's fortunate that I woke up when I did and actually bothered to go see where the noise was coming from. If I hadn't, probably my entire flat would've been flooded. At least it didn't spread to the electronics in the study or the other half of the living room, or get into my bedroom. How could that fucking idiot upstairs not even realise what he'd done? I don't know if I can make him pay for any losses, but the super said that if there is any damage to the wood floors, the building will have to replace them.
I don't understand why one bad thing after another keeps happening to me. Haven't the last 6 months been shitty enough?
It's already dawn and I'm exhausted and feverish again, but I can't fall back asleep because I'm still so shaky with rage.
ETA: Update on the situation here.
