Under Door Number One...

I come back from class the other day, and I notice a few pieces of paper slid partially under my door. They're from my landlord and go something like this.

Dear Valued Tenants,
This Saturday, September 8, 2007 our plumbers will be working on the water lines. They have told us that the water will be shut off from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM.

Please arrange your usage of water, bath, shower, toilet, etc. so this outage will have the least amount of impact to you.
The other piece of paper said that my apartment would be one that would have to be accessed for said work to be done. So right now (and since ~8:30) I've got plumbers coming in and out of my place. Whatever, shit happens. Not too much I can do about it.

I thought the last line of my landlord's letter was amusing: "arrange your usage..." AKA put off all bodily functions and cleaning for the day. Speaking of which, I most definitely have to use the bathroom right about now. Guess that gives me double motivation for heading off to the library right about now.

You could have come over to my place if it was that bad.

Thanks man. I actually didn't think of that. I was out studying for most of the day anyway, so it wasn't so bad.
