Flooding

As if on cue, the pipes several floors up have exploded once again. My girlfriend's apartment was waterlogged this morning, so she came down and cooked breakfast on my stove. She moves out next week.

Update

I suppose it's time for an update.

We finally have new laundry machines. At least they are reliable, which is a plus.

There was some major snafu upstairs in the management side. We had a couple of staffing changes, and apparently no-one bothered to renew my lease. There was a paniced 'please renew' a few days ago; I compared the new lease against the old and helped them fix a bunch of the typos and missing sections in it.

They finally turned on the building heat, to discover that my girlfriend's apartment had a major pipe break in it (the building is hot water heated.) I've had three days of wet stinky carpet as a result, but it's finally starting to dry out now.

If it wasn't so cheap (I'm on grandfathered rent) and such a pain in the ass to move, I'd be living somewhere else. The only thing that keeps me here is inertia.

That's about it.
