To trump my $10 parking ticket, Caleb set fire to his apartment.

This just happened minutes ago. Yesterday after class I walked out to my car to find a parking ticket, dripping wet, stuck to my windshield. It’s only $10, so it’s not too bad, but I was quite aggravated. Not even a month into my classes, and I already have a ticket.
Today after class I came over to Caleb, Tim, and Kevin’s apartment to hang out before we go see The Dark Knight. Tim, Kevin, and I went to eat, and Caleb set up his Hookah with Andrew. It wasn’t five minutes after we returned the incident happened. I was watching “the most awesome preview for a school project ever” only to be distracted by Caleb saying, “Oh shit” and scrambling around. Come to find out, he dropped the coal for the Hookah on the carpet. Here’s a picture of the damage:
Unfortunately my photos are limited to coming off of my computer, so they are kinda bad.
Anyway, after vacuuming up all of the excess coal dust, some of which was still aflame and made a really cool cyclone effect in the Bissell, there was still a sizeable portion of the carpet damaged. Instead of just covering it up, we did what any group of college kids do, we made a bad situation worse. Here is the hole:
I can’t tell you how funny this whole ordeal was. It only lasted a few minutes, but it was very funny. Hope you enjoyed it.
