And the Rain Rain Rain Came Down Down Down....

I don't know how many Pooh-lovers there are out there, but when I was a kid Winnie the Pooh and the Blustery Day was the bees knees! Today I woke up and it was like I was in that movie.

All I could find was a Swedish version of this song! lol! While the voices of Pooh and Piglet are beyond wrong the song is hilarious!
It rained, and rained, and rained. Last night I was walking down the hall and almost slipped and busted my ass on the floor.....because there was a leak in the roof. But it wasn't just dripping out of the roof, it was leaking down the whole 17ft. wall and gathering in a puddle on the floor. So we put a towel under it and went to bed. When I got up this morning I went to check on it and it had become a giant puddle that extended down the hall and into the laundry room. As it turns out, a majority of the puddle was from a leak in the roof right outside our door in the hall and that had overflowed under our door in the night and joined up with puddle in our hallway. Well, we soaked some up with our dirty towels, but we don't have a mop (and no, we aren't gross and never clean the floors, we use a swiffer mop). So we decided to go down to the office and ask Annette for a mop. We get down to the office (which is in the basement) and Annette is freaking out! She has traded in her signature super skinny cat walk heels for tennis shoes and she's running around answering phones and trying to use a wet vac. The office was flooded! Big time. So there was nothing she could do to help us at the time, but she told us the hotel across the street flooded and they were rescuing people by boat. This hotel is farther away from the river than our apartments, it just happens to sit in a little dip in the land that gathered a lot of runoff. So Chase and I were like "awesome"! We went to check it out. School got cancelled because campus was flooded and we went exploring. The river had flooded the entire park! It was the craziest thing I've ever seen.


I'm hoping the water doesn't make it up the hill into our parking lot, because from there its a straight shot to the apartments, but I'm really hoping the rain keeps up and there's no school Wednesday!! (crosses fingers) Anyway, long story short, I was gonna talk about H.G. Wells' birthday being...well now yesterday.....but I was sidetracked with the floods. So perhaps tomorrow you can hear all about how great Jeff Wayne's War of the Worlds music was. And no, I'm not kidding. I loved it.
