Yesterday the water at our condo was turned off around eight in the morning while they installed new water heaters. I didn’t really care,
since that is when I left for work, where of course they had running water.
Travalon had the day off of work, but he was out and about, fishing with
Rodney most of the day, so it didn’t really affect him either. After work I
met with Jilly Moose and OK Cap for dinner at Pasqual’s, then I went to choir
practice and had to sing soprano on a number of songs, which was surprisingly
easy. Either I’m a really good sight reader, or I’ve sung soprano on these
songs before. Of course, it helps that I’ve heard the soprano part next to me while
singing the alto part for nearly two decades. When I finally got home around
nine, Travalon told me the water still wasn’t turned back on, but I tried it
and it worked. Just then he got an email from the condo association president
saying there would be no hot water until this morning. Since I take showers
before bed, this was bad news for me. I had to go to bed unshowered.
This morning I got up early enough to run for a mile and a
half, then I had to decide: head to the health club for a warm shower, or brave
a cold one at home? I erred on the side of laziness and figured I’d just offer
up the frigid shower for the poor souls in Purgatory or something. However, the
shower didn’t seem that unbearably cold, and it actually warmed up to a downright
pleasant temperature within a few minutes. Either the guys working on the water
heater started very early this morning, or I could have taken a bearable shower
last night, after all. Then I couldn’t find a hair dryer (since I always let my
hair air dry overnight), but my hair actually looks pretty good after air drying on the way to work. Maybe I
should always shower in the mornings!
