Friday night I had a knock at the door. It was our building concierge informing me that the water would be shut off most of the day Saturday because of some unspecified work. I didn't think that would be a big deal because I don't drink the tap water. I failed to remember that I would need the water to shower, shave, rinse dishes, use the toilet, and a number of other tasks. Nothing like unexpectedly losing something to remind you of its importance. I guess it is experiences like this that drew me overseas.

Note: I have put a new photo of myself on the This Site page.  Take a peak.
