I blame the weather
Dec. 9th, 2009 03:06 pmThis morning, either just as I woke to my alarm or shortly before, I dreamt that there was water dripping from my ceiling. Since I'm not so narcissistic as to assume you all remember, I'll just mention that this was technically a nightmare by dint of the fact that I do have water dripping from several parts of the ceiling in my apartment.
However, in my nightmare, the drip was above my head, and it woke me (in the dream) by dropping cold water right onto my face. I spluttered awake (in the dream!) and looked up, horrified to see no sign of water damage but a definite future drop starting to well up on the ceiling.
Moments later, as I rushed out of bed to go get the super before my bed was ruined, the ceiling collapsed. There were boards and plaster all over the foot of my bed (despite the leak being at the head of it) and I could see up the hole, through the floorboards to see our upstairs neighbor (one of them) looking down from the bathtub.
I woke up newly resolved to get those damn leaks fixed before I disappear for vacation. I NEED to get that done.
