Wow, today I significantly underestimated the crazy power of the rainy season. On the way home from work, a light sprinkle turned into a torrential downpour that brought traffic to a glacial pace, and flooded parts of the roads.
Luckily, I had my umbrella, and tried to roll up my pants legs, but it was no match for the normally-pleasant five-minute walk from where the tro-tro drops me off to my house. By the time I got home, my dress pants were soaked, with one leg down and other still rolled up, and I had tried in vain to use my umbrella to protect my backpack instead of my head.
I walked in the door to discover that part of the roof was leaking, and frantically told two of the guys who work on the property. I went back inside, and then went back out to find one of the guys peeing off the porch I’m pretty sure (can’t peeing wait until AFTER we dry my floor?!). My laundry bin was able to help catch the leak, and luckily, the rains have slowed down, but now I’m left wondering what will happen the next time it rains.
