My bedroom has been turned into a swamp.
A poorly designed gutter wore away the seal along a cement drainage channel. The water, forced into the crevice behind the drainage channel, eroded the earth along the foundation of my building. Torrential downpours last week finished the damage, creating a sinkhole right next to a window well. Last night, when it rained again, the gutter essentially directed a torrent of water directly through the sinkhole, into the window well, and from the window well directly into my bedroom.
So… that’s been fun.
I haven’t had a chance to polish up the education standard I was hoping to post yesterday. Instead, I’m going to give you five more What I’m Reading reviews:
11. Warrior’s Apprentice / Cetaganda – Lois McMaster Bujold
12. The Vor Game – Lois McMaster Bujold
13. Downbelow Station – C.J. Cherryh
14. Diplomatic Immunity – Lois McMaster Bujold
15. A Song of Ice and Fire – George R.R. Martin
These would have originally been written in October and November of 2003. As you can see, I was on a bit of a Bujold kick at the time. Basically, I think her books need to be classified as an addictive substance. If I read one of them I literally can’t stop myself from reading all the rest.
