my ceiling is leaking thanks to the near constant rain this weekend

it's really bizzarre.  the paint had started to peel and it now feels like i'm living in a flop house.

but then this house is 50 years old, so it's bound to have some....quirks.

the greatest thing about my housing complex is before we signed the lease, we did some research and many people complained about their units being "haunted"

sadly we do not get any of the associated fun of a haunted townhome
