Water Damage

Awesome.

So last evening around 12:30
After a long day
I was watching Die Hard
Ahhh Die Hard- the marvelous film
That always puts me in a fantastic mood
So as I was lounging about
I was also beginning to pack my suitcase to come home for the weekend

Then, as I was looking under my bed
I noticed
Something rather peculiar...

The floor was buckling

Very strange indeed
At first I wondered if this could have been due to the heat
But I quickly realized that heat can do a lot of things
But it's not supposed to buckle hardwood floors

Then I noticed
The buckle was stemming from the enormous air conditioning control unit
See it's not one of those in-window ones
Its like a climate control box against the wall

So I pull the bed out
And imagine
One large buckle in the floor extending about six feet from the unit
Surrounded by a 3ft X 5ft area of bumpy tiles
Kind of like hills

It took me wayyyyyy too long to realize that these tiles were soaking wet
So wet, in fact
That upon stepping on these little hills
A sprout of water would shoot up from the corners where hardwood the tiles met

What I finally concluding
Was that the air conditioning had been leaking for days
And I had no idea
Since it was under the bed

Awesome....

So my first reaction was not
"Oh no I hope the people below me dont have water leaking
Down from the ceiling"
No, no, I dont care about them
My first reaction was:
Wow I hope there's not an electrical fire while I'm sleeping
And I burn alive

It was later explained to me that this really could not happen

STILL, I was suspicious

So I walked around on my hilly, buckly tiles
With a towel under my feet
To absorb as much water as possible
As the finish rubbed off the wood

And then I gave up and passed out in bed

Hopefully this will be getting fixed while I'm away this weekend

THEN THEN THEN THEN THEN

This morning
I arrive at the airport
THE ONE TIME I DONT BOOK MY OWN TRAVEL
(jim arnold did)
Not only do I get an early morning flight
But I arrive at the airport to find that
I dont even have a ticket
That's right
My ticket was somehow for the 4pm flight

So I change it
Problem solved?
I go through security
Then I go look at magazines
And as I'm purchasing a GREEK yogurt
I think
"Hmm... where is my laptop?...?"

AND the lost-something-important-and-expensive panic sets in

So I'm running around looking for it
I end up back at security
Where this LARGE woman
named Rashanice
Who was VERY nice and fun
Was guarding it with her life

I was pleased she cared so much about my laptop.
And I was on my way.

Cut to 10 minutes later as I'm waiting at the gate
I notice I have somehow managed to spill blueberry GREEK yogurt
All over my lap
And arm (????)
Good fun.
