Well fuck...

by
Woke up at 5:40 and found that we have no working water... It was working when I went to bed at 11:30 last night. It hasn't been shut off, and it isn't one of our pipes. We called up the water company and were met with either busy signals from others also wanting to know what the hell is going on or never-ending ringing because no one's there yet. Apparently the place doesn't open until 8AM, and I have to leave for work by 6:15. Can't take a shower or even wash my hands (to a person with OCD/OCPD, this is a major thing). I'm hoping they get it working before I get home or I'm gonna go nuts. >_<



UPDATE: LARGE WATER MAIN RUPTURED, LEAVING EVERYONE NORTH OF COLUMBUS ALL THE WAY TO EDINBURGH WITHOUT WATER. THEY WERE WORKING ON IT AT 3AM.


UPDATE 2: WE NOW HAVE TO BOIL OUR WATER AND LET THE FAUCETS RUN BEFORE WASHING ANYTHING FOR AT LEAST THE NEXT 48 HOURS.

Yikes. Hope it isn't a broken water main or a frozen pipe.

Actually, we don't. Apparently the water company told @BoreasArt about the boiling and such when he called them, but he just texted me that it still isn't back on yet. x_x *hugs*

Ah fuck T_T. Worse comes to worse you can rent a hotel room for a night.

That does suck, hope its just a slight water break like we get at times, bottled water is just too $$$ to get, I'd go crazy with my morning tea and shower.

Always annoying, things like this. But hopefully they fix things when they say they will, and soon you can forget all about it.

That sucks. Interestingly with the recent cold weather we've been having where I live, I haven't heard of more water main breaks.

I think it might have been the rapid fluctuation in temperatures I was telling you about that caused this one to rupture. 50s to 10s to 50s in just a few days is never a good thing.

Gah, sounds crappy. >_<;; Though from the updates it looks like things will be getting back to normal soon, so that's good. =3
