What the **** ? you might ask of the odd photo posted here. It does look rather strange I have to admit. It is a photo of my bathroom ceiling which seems on the verge of bursting and creating my own little lake inside as it continues to rain outside. The leak is directly over the edge of my bathtub so I have to place a bucket precariously on top of the tub’s edge to catch the drip. The bucket has already fallen once. Luckily, it fell into the bathtub.
Even worse is the drip, drip, drip, drip … Closing the door has muffled the sound somewhat. But still it goes drip, drip, drip …
My landlord said one of my neighbors had complained about a leak in his apartment last week. A roof expert was sent on top of the building but nothing was found. Of course, it takes very little for a leak to develop. I know this because at my last full-time job, the roof leaked just about the entire seven years I was there. The building was given a new roof, but still I would have to place a trash can on my desk when a downpour took place. I said the situation reminded me of the old “Snuffy Smith” cartoon in which buckets were placed all over the Smith household because the worthless, lazy, moonshine-drinking, gambling, chicken thief Snuffy wouldn’t fix the roof. I’ll just leave it at that, okay?
Perhaps I will post another photo when the bathroom ceiling collapses. Hopefully, I won’t be in there when it happens. Until then … drip, drip, drip, drip, drip, …
