H2O damage

Sep 07, 2006 07:14

i'm up early although i'm taking the day off of work, i just got done switching sets of drenched towels and putting them through the washer/dryer.

yesterday i got home from work exhausted. this surgery has really taken a lot of energy out of me, more than i thought. the pain is manageable, but being "on" all-day and accidentally picking up stuff kicks my ass.

i got home at 3:30ish and by 4 i was laying in my bed. at 8:30 i woke up, grabbed a smoke, and went outside to think about things i have to do today. i went back inside the apartment and walked in the kitchen to find myself standing in about 1/2 inch of water. i immediately thought i had broken the line that goes to the "ice maker" and thought "fuck me".

i called my mom which at that time i wouldn't normally do. she told me to move the fridge and went on for about 5 minutes. i told her i'd try but with my arm in a sling it would be a little difficult. (during this time amanda was calling, sorry amanda!) so then she woke up my dad and we noticed that everything was fine behind the fridge.

we went around the apartment and noticed that the 2nd bedroom carpet coming from next door as well as the carpet from the dining room (coming from next door) was WET.

the lady next to me is moving, there's always construction going on. she leaves the door unlocked and we went in to find her apartment FLOODED with all the water sitting and draining into my apartment.

i called her at her new ranch twice telling her when a neighbor came out and said she was there earlier and had broomed out water and then proceeded to do laundry?

people who have been to my apartment will now have to visualize. the kitchen cabinets closest to the the hallway have a water stain about 6in-1ft crawling up from last night. that's how far the water went and the only cabinet we could take drawers out off to check.

the carpet in the dining room is now wet almost to my dining room table. a good 3-4 four feet. just keeps growing despite our towel efforts.

the 2nd bedroom carpet went from about a 1ft of wet carpet to 3 feet over night. the towels were soaked.

i can only imagine what damage is being done to my walls and what bacteria/mold will start to set in because the lady will not answer her fucking phone.

of course my dad was calm, a little pissy when he called my mom to tell her. it's funny when his pissy side comes out. i love my dad. poor guy had to get up at 2AM to go to work.

so, in a nut shell if you want to come over and have a drink...we'll just wring out a towel?

yummy!

someone please leave me some love. i need some love today.
