Why do I hear rain?

Ken woke me up at 8:15 this morning to report that it was raining in the kitchen. Huh?! I followed him in there (half-awake) and saw that, in fact, there was water raining in from around a couple of the recessed lighting fixtures in the ceiling. Yikes! I grabbed a bucket to catch the run-off, and he bolted upstairs to wake the neighbors and find out the source. Apparently, their ice maker malfunctioned and the lever that tells the water hose to fill the unit for ice was stuck in the ON position, and just kept running (for who knows how long). Lovely. So they got that turned off, thank goodness. Tried all day to reach D.R. Horton's customer service center, to no avail. Finally went over to their trailer that's still on-site here for the new construction and found our rep (they have just given him a new cell phone in the past day or two, and not set up voice mail yet). He's going to come by tomorrow with his moisture meter to see if the drywall is wet (um, yes, probably so). Excitement!
