It’s funny how losing your water for twelve hours because of a water main break outside your building really makes you appreciate the little things - like making a pot of coffee, brushing your teeth, and flushing the toilet. We keep a couple of gallon jugs of water filled in the kitchen just for situations like this, but all the same, things were looking pretty grim by the time our blessed water came back earlier this evening. I wasn’t looking forward to trying to get ready for work tomorrow with no water, but now that it’s back on I can go to sleep knowing that the chances of having to commute while smelly are slim to none.
