going out with a bang

dear riverknoll,

just when i thought we were finished, thank you for providing me with the content for one final post.

sincerely,
a parched student in hypo105

-------

i came home from work today and decided that a nice drink of water would be lovely. because after all, i'm all cleared out when it comes to food or beverages.

only to discover that i have no water.

none at all.

oh wait... a drip...


(i also apparently have trouble turning the faucet off... in my defense i was more worried about dropping my camera in the sink but i guess there was no water in it so that wouldn't have been a problem...anywayyy)

i am suddenly overcome by the need to drink water. i feel thirsty. parched. a feeling that would not be present if there was not a lack of water.

in fact, i would probably not even remember that water existed.

but at this given moment that is all i can think of. you always want what you can't have.

this situation needs to fix itself before tomorrow morning or else i'm outta luck because the only food i have left is oatmeal or rice both of which require water.

i guess i have baking soda and olive oil too. neither of which sound like particularly good things
to drink..

i'm also slightly alarmed by all of the drilling, sawing and hammering that is going on underneath of my apartment.. to top it off i overheard the comment "wait, i think i hear someone in there!"

so, apparently all i can do is pray they wait until tomorrow to bulldoze this sucker down.

Should probably work on your faucet handling skills.

Out of there in just the nick of time. Farewell
