In Which Olly Is An Absent-Minded Professor

I have a tendency to become very absorbed in whatever I am doing. I was concentrating upon my work, until a point in time when I absentmindedly rubbed the sole of my foot against the back of my leg. My foot was wet. That was odd. But I paid no mind until I realized that actually, my feet were in the midst of a puddle. No, scratch that, my whole room was a giant mass of puddles! Now, what in the world was causing this flood of water?

It was then that I recognized the culprit. The silver radiator/ water-heater is leaking. I quickly cranked it off and attempted to clean up the damage with paper towels. Of course, that didn't work, so it was time to bring out the big guns. There were towels involved, my friends. *looks solemn*

I confess, the first thought that went through my mind was: "So that's why all my notebooks have been getting so confoundedly wet!" You see, the water has been seeping into my backpack...

It seems my new choice is to freeze or to flood my room. Heat is not an option for Olly. Well, at least it isn't until I find the Superintendent and inquire about the fact that my belongings have begun to resemble Noah's Ark due to this silvery contraption.
