I need a vacation from my vacation.

Plus I need a new futon mattress or I need a whole new bed. It's bullshit going to sleep and my arms going dead in the night because of pressure points. Plus after the foul, watery disaster of Sunday morning I think I may need to throw out my lovesac.

fifteen minutes
That's right, chief. A little less than fifteen minutes to download 295 images which weigh in a little less than half a gigabyte. My old camera would've taken at least four or five hours to download that many images over a serial cable.

brief explanation
Here's the story second and third hand from the various involved parties. Attic Girl was taking a shower on Sunday morning. September 24th, 2006 for those of you playing along at home. Olympics Guy's bedroom and bathroom are suddenly deluged by water causing him to get upset and call the property manager. The property manager asks after me and Olympics Guy tells the property manager that I was out of town.

Six hours later I arrive at my apartment to a musty smell. I tromp downstairs, discover there's a trail of water on the carpet coming from the kitchen. No big deal, I figure, Olympics Guy's shower overflowed or backsplashed and came down through the ceiling. When I get to the bathroom I discover the holocaust you'll see in the first picture.

The other two pictures are the kitchen and the area in the living room immediately next to the kitchen doorway.

Fortunately the property manager had everything cleaned up! I was afraid I'd end up having to clean the horrorshow of my bathroom.
