msfledermaus(I like to say S'plosion...Yes, I'm weird, please drive through.)
I got a call yesterday at 7:30 in the morning from our head building engineer, telling me that since the Guthrie had overnight become a multi-level swimming pool due to a water main breaking, we didn't need to come to work. (50,000 gallons, they're saying. Happily nobody got hurt, and they're still trying to figure out how much damage there is.)
So yesterday I stayed home and nursed my cold, and followed the news.
(I'm almost better now. Sniff sniff.) In a way it was personally a good thing to get an extra day off. I'd gotten some bad news, and hadn't been sleeping well the night before. I'm more rested now. *wry grin*
Today we have heat and electricity, but *no water* We've got bottled stuff and the next-door Allianze building for restrooms. The place is deserted, since neither the Guthrie or the Walker are open today, or this weekend.
It's really strange. *Takes swig from bottled mocha* I hope no one worried to much about me; my access is still tenuous when I'm not at work.
(I still have to find a faulty inner modem and take it out of my tower. I'm a little reluctant to start ripping chunks out of a machine I'm not too familiar with.)
Ms Eff, looking at the crater they're digging next door with awe and wonder...
