water, at all

"The [town] Water Department will be installing additional hydrants and gate valves in [your street] prior to road improvements scheduled for later this year. This work will require the temporary interruption of water to your home. The work will be performed in the late evening in order to minimize the disruption to residents." blah blah blah Wednesday 9pm to "early Thursday morning".

There's a pit directly across the street, where they're doing some of this work. But so far, it's like the worst soccer match ever, like maybe North Korea vs Greenland.

Went to the gym this afternoon, because a) I gave myself a 2-day injury pass/Medal of Awesome after Greylock, and b) showers. And OMG it feels so much better to be clean.

Also, I can't let go of the significance of "in [your street]" (British construction) vs "on [your street]" (American construction). I'm not really a language geek, but I notice these things, at least in English.

Quarter of freaking one in the morning, and it's only now clear that they're installing a hydrant. Now the back-filling begins, I guess.
