Mar. 12th, 2025 07:11 amThe strangest thing happened last night.
I have had issues with leaking in this apartment.
Just months after I first moved in, the ceiling over the shower started leaking. The first time it was just for a few minutes and was difficult to see where it was coming from. The second time, there is a crack on the ceiling where the water was coming from. Both times, maintenance did nothing about it despite my having video of the second leak.
Then, in late October/early November of 2023 a leak started in the laundry closet over my BRAND NEW washer/dryer. It took me calling daily for three weeks, and threatening to call the health department, before maintenance was able to get the tenant in the third floor apartment to let them in to locate the leak. There was not a tenant in the second floor unit at the time so they were able to quickly determine the leak was from the third floor unit.
I am now super triggered by the sound of dripping water which makes freezing temperatures a nightmare for me because I leave the faucets I don't use often dripping all the time when it's below 40* outside.
Because of this, I am super aware of dripping and will go and look for the source if I even THINK I heard water dripping.
So, last night as I was getting ready for bed, I heard water dripping in the shower. I immediately looked up at the ceiling but couldn't see anything. As I was lowering my gaze, I saw water dripping from the shower head. Now, as y'all might recall, I did not take a full shower yesterday. Not to mention, I had been in the bathroom several times during the day. There was no reason for the shower to be dripping at 9:30 at night. I made sure the tap was off but it was still dripping. I swiped the water drop off the shower head and that was that.
I'm still confused as to how/why that happened.
Another weird thing that happened was that my Discovery+ app on my FireStick upgraded last night and now I have to manually turn off the closed captioning every time I watch a show. I do not watch my Discover+ shows with CC on because those shows are reality TV (more or less) and the CC tends to lag.
Also, under 'continue watching' are a bunch of shows I have never watched. Now, my mother and I share this app and it used to not allow you to make more than one profile, so it is possible that some of these shows were watched by her.
I only managed to sleep in the bed for about two and a half hours because I was unable to find a comfortable position to sleep in.
