When It Rains, It Pours, Then The Ceiling Leaks

Today is a really crappy day. Couldn't sleep very well at all last night. Ended up visiting the Chow Hall around midnight and then reading until a fairly crappy pulp fiction novel until about 0430 when I finally fell asleep. Needless to say I a grumpy camper today. I feel a NORP coming on vice my regularly scheduled workout. Also, got an email from my Bride telling me there is a big wet water stain on my kitchen ceiling right below my bathroom. Aye Carumba! Water leakage is one of my biggest fears. When ever my darling little angels (Chaos, Mayhem and Entropy) take a bath in their or my bathtub they always splash way too much water on the floor. I live in fear of them causing water damage and wet rot to the house. My Bride tells me that nothing appears to be wet in our bathroom which put even more of a scare in me. That means it is probably a leaky pipe and we will have to cut out the ruined section of ceiling, repair the pipes, remediate the water damage, and then replace the ceiling decorative plaster work. That hits me right is the sensitive wallet region. With the Boy's tuition payments hanging over my head like a financial sword of Damocles, a hefty house repair gives me the palsy shakes. Maybe I need to extend for another 6 months and keep the combat pays and tax exemptions coming in. I am feeling very mercenary right now, I think I need a nap.

As I proof read this, it appears the word for today is CRAPPY

Crappy (Kra' pee) adj. Vulgar slang:
1. Miserable, poorly
2. Inferior, worthless
3. Mean, contemptable
To be crap like in nature.

Let's all say it together now. CRAPPY

TO THE TYRANT NEVER YIELD
