Today was rolling along pretty well...one of my bosses was high on pain killers, i spent an hour long meeting making funnels out of the aluminum foil of an easter chocolate egg i got gifted, and i was all set to get crackin on work that needed done.
Then there was a "shhhhhhh" noise. it wasn't good. i thought maybe the corkboard was about to fall off my wall onto the monitor again. nope, not moving.
"Shhhh" again at which point i realized the noise was ominously coming from above me. As i lifted my head to look towards the offending noise source, the roof tiles started to change color, the dripping started and turned into a stead rain---and without realizing it i screamed: ITS RAINING (yes, Emily thought, but why are you yelling about it) IN MY OFFIIIIIIIIICE!!!!!! It was like a Administrative Code Blue---suddenly everyone rushed in and began salvaging and rescuing the computer and other electronic equipment and precious pieces of paper. Alas, it was too late for the cabinet's contents, but all was not lost as Murphy spared the one beside it that contains all my precious hard copy files. Bon voyage team unity book.
Within a few minutes, the recycle bins were all in place to catch the trickling water still running out of the cabinet, facilities turned off the offending pipe's water source, and i got my self relocated here---in the cubicle corral. Tah dah.
