Season’s Greetings

To herald the holidays and complement the Christmas lights and decorations many of my neighbors put up last week, the super placed a petite Christmas tree in the foyer of my apartment building while I was away.

As an even better holiday treat, he seems to have fixed my Phantom Toilet during my absense. It would occasionally flush itself and continue running. This wouldn’t usually be a huge issue, but the toilet is one of those vacuum-flush varieties, and to have it suddenly start running in the middle of the night would intercut my dreams with perilous whitewater rapids until I woke up to groggily jiggle the handle.
