Flooded!

We were having a wonderful night on Tuesday. The grandparents came over and we were sipping on some alkeehol and enjoying fajita tacos around the living room, listening to the rain fall outside the window until Rudy suddenly thought it sounded like it was raining INSIDE.

And it was.

Water started pouring from the sprinkler mount in the dining room, and soon water started dripping from a seam that traveled across the entire room. Then water began pouring from a crack over the counter in the kitchen. And THEN it started pouring out of the dining room light fixture! It was a disaster.

For now we are staying at the TownePlace Suites a few blocks from the apartment, courtesy of the complex. Rudy is at the apartment right now making sure things are getting fixed properly, because we don't want to experience this again.

The reason we flooded? On the second floor there is a hallway with a drain. The drain was plugged. Right next to the drain is a crack in the chip between the floors, and that is where all the water went, right into our apartment.

So not pleased about any of this. My apartment was nice and clean and pretty and now I'm going to have to clean it all again!
