My unfinished basement ceiling has some nails sticking out of it; I would be in a very uncomfortable situation.

I would gently float to the cieling and walk out my open window... although I'll probly try to hang onto something, get ripped apart, and then get trampled by a zombie apocolypse.

All things with mass are affected by gravity. The only reason for the buoyancy of helium and whatnot is because it's lighter than the stuff around it. It's like when you mix two liquids together and the lighter one rises to the top while the heavier one forms the bottom.
So... would the reversal make it where the heavier goes to the top and the lighter goes to the bottom?
Top and bottom are relative concepts. And if everything is pushed away based on everything's mass instead, I don't think organized layers would form as easily. In fact we might explode or something. Everything has gravity, it's just not enough to matter unless it gets planet sized. There's lots of stuff going on on the atomic scale and whatnot that probably plays into it.
Besides, if gravity were reversed we'd be launched out of the suns orbit, the sun would be launched out of the orbit of that black hole at the center of the milky way, that would be launched even more, and so on.
If gravity were reversed everything would die violently.
so we're fucked?

Get pinned by my bed. But wouldn't the buildings be repelled as well? I don't think they're designed to hold tight to the planet very well. Massive buildings may have foundations, but....

Urm... I have a 30-foot ceiling above me with a VERY fast spinning fan. I doubt it would kill me, but I'd be bruised quite a bit. It's the only room WITH 30-foot ceilings, and I'll have a hard time getting... up? To the kitchen.
