Wet ceiling, it's my thing

Remember when I posted about our swamp cooler/ceiling leaking in our last apartment? Remember how it was an ongoing issue? Remember how much I hated it? Remember how grateful I was that nothing important was underneath that leak?

I came home from work today to the sound of *splat* ... *splat* ... *splat*

I went to investigate the sound...



There's one of these in every room. There's a great big puddle on my carpet. I tried soaking it up, it didn't work too well. You would think the sprinkler and/or pipe would be the cause...

He said the sprinkler itself was dry, so he cut a big hole in the ceiling. (I snuck in some pics just for you when he went to get more stuff from his truck)





The pipes were dry, but the water was coming from the right. So then he got maintenance and they went upstairs. Their A/C units condensation line got clogged, as well as their secondary line, and so it filled with TONS of water and over flowed onto my ceiling. 

They left a mess on my floor overnight and so poor Jasmine had to be locked away in the spare bedroom so she didn't try to eat the stuff. (She would. She's THAT dumb.) First pic is the mess he made cutting into the ceiling. Second pic is the stuff he left behind that I didn't want her getting into.







Thankfully, it's not over any where that our stuff will be - if it ever arrives - because I don't want to worry about water dripping on my couch, or TV or bed or anything else really. So let's hope it's fixed for good and nothing else leaks.
