Yesterday my toilet started running, and not in the way that can be fixed by fishing the chain out from under the flapper valve and reattaching it to the lever. Today Maintenance fixed it -- and now the shutoff valve is leaking. This was fairly predictable; the similar valves on the kitchen and bathroom sinks failed a couple of years ago when I had the faucets replaced, so they seem to be effectively single-use devices. Fortunately, so far it's a fairly slow leak; it's too close to the floor to put more than a shallow receptacle underneath. So tomorrow morning I'll be calling the office ....

Also, some unidentified neighbor has left two messy bags of trash, too overfilled to carry, outside my door, and Mr. Maintenance no doubt thinks that was me.
