Water Out

I received several days of advance notice that the water in my apartment would be shut off Thursday evening at 9:00 PM, and restored at 5:00 AM while they worked on the water mains, so I bought a large bottle of water earlier this week. Thursday evening, I dined at Namaste Jalsa, a few blocks from the Patent Office, and then came home. Sure enough, I saw workmen and machines doing stuff, and water spraying up from the main. I managed to walk around the flooded patch of sidewalk without getting my shoes soaked.

At home, I have bottled water to drink, but no shower and no proper toothbrushing. I do hope that the water will be restored on schedule.
