Water, or the Lack Thereof

Got up this morning, in a haze as usual.  The toilet wouldn’t flush.  Ugh, guess I’ll have to call the plumber.  But wait, now the shower isn’t working… or the faucet.  Turns out there was no water working in the whole apartment.  And then I get to work (which is currently 4 blocks from the apartment), and the water is out there too.  Water main break, won’t be fixed until tonight, if we’re lucky.  Turns out I really need a shower in the morning to get my mind functioning.  Caffeine is nice, but the shower is really vital to me being productive at work.  Fortunately, my employer realizes that no functioning bathrooms = bad place to work and is sending us home early.  Which turns this week into one of those fabled 2.5 day work-weeks.  Woohoo.
