bugger me
My friend called me at work to beg me to come pick her up after her car broke down. No problem. I hop on my bike, book my hiney home in record time. I pick up the mail and I was allll excited that I got three patterns from my eBay auctions in the mail. I toss them on the cupboard, grap a drink of water and then call my friend to let her know I'm on the way.
An hour later, I'm home, post ice cream and dropping my friend at the hospital for her shift.
And guess what. My sinks OVERFLOWED with hot, dirty water. All over my cupboards and onto my floor.
Guess what was on the cupboard?
My cross-stitch patterns. Which now have water damage spots on them...I don't know if they're going to be salvagable or not.
And fuck. I wasn't even running water. Not even the sink, the tub or the dishwasher. Fuck. Fuck. Fuck.
And of course, since it was already 6pm....that means that at the earliest, the maintenance man might be here tomorrow afternoon.

The sink did it.
Again.
I have now called the emergency line in the building and asked my upstairs neighbor to NOT run anymore water.
*sigh*

shiiiiit.
that is unbelievably bad luck. if the patterns aren't salvagable, you should seek damages from your property management company.
That bites! What ^ they said.
