bathroom ceiling just cracked. lots of water. got workmen upstairs to turn off whatever caused it. waiting for super or repair or something now that i.ve left messages for everyone in free world.
We have water and rocks coming out of our bedroom ceiling and the people upstairs have chunks of plaster falling out of their ruined water logged bathroom ceiling ceiling. Plumber coming. Maintenance guys here. EEK!
Ceilings are often full of evil. Especially in an older building where plumbing repairs may be a mosaic of parts from different eras, creating a colorful patchwork of epic fail waiting to happen.
It happened at my boyfriend's place over the summer. I noticed a drizzle when I was using the bathroom during the night, so I flipped on the light. The light exploded. Good times.
I just had to deal with that in my kitchen. I came home from NYCC to discover water gushing from upstairs. I have had 10 days with no kitchen, but he(maintenance guy) is supposed to be done today- just in time for me to leave for Wondercon in the morning.
