Explosion!

I feel so scatter brained lately. My house is in constant disarray and I haven't spent very much time there at all. And then there's all the usual craziness, sports, appointments, volunteering etc. The weird snow does not help things either, it's so cold here right now! What happened to spring? Tonight I want to finish putting my house back together and veg. I'll cuddle with a Bunnyrat and watch one of my 3 most favorite movies. That shall be the plan, lets see how it goes.

The weekend was good. I hung out with Ryan a bunch and friend from my old work. It was fun. I helped Ryan pick out an Upconverting DVD player. I might pick one up for myself actually, they aren't very expensive. Also the Pelicans and Comorants are back, they were swimming in the river, about 40 or 50 of them, I could see them from my house, I love living by the river.

Sunday night I came home, it had been snowing and raining for a good part of the day. It sounded like water was running in my place, so I took a walk around, determined it was pipes or something and went about my business. Later I noticed a drop of water on the floor in the hallway. I thought that was super weird, I'm known to leave water drops around but I wasn't in the hallway with anything wet. So I wiped it up. About 20 mins later I heard lots of dripping in the hallway. Sure enough there was a leak in my ceiling, also odd because the hallway isn't near any outside walls. I phoned the maintenance guy, who was as helpful as ever. Said he couldn't do anything about it, it was the rain. So I phoned Ryan and he suggested to put some plastic over my floor, then I put towels over top to sop up the water, and then ran a fan over the leak to try to dry it out. But then I had to figure out what to do with Bunnyrat. I knew there'd be condo people in my place the next day, checking out the leak and to see if there were anymore leaks. I'm not supposed to have a pet. So at 1am I was moving Bunnyrat and all of her stuff over to Ryan's. Luckily living in a condo, I don't have coordinate any repairs, the condo fees and association covers all that. I was on the phone all day yesterday making sure of that, and figuring out when people were coming so I could move Bunnyrat back in tonight. I'm exhausted....

Also it's so lonely in my place without Bunnyrat! I slept there last night without him, I miss him. He's not lonely though, he's staying in a house full of people that play with him. Ryan's sister's been taking good care of him. But I woke up this morning, and was kinda disappointed there was no one wagging their tail and jumping back and forth waiting to see me. And all morning I was looking out of the corner of my eye expecting to see her, and there was no one following me around stomping their foot.
