Woke up this morning to no water pressure.
August 8, 2017 at 9:22 am
Freaked out this morning when my sinks were not pushing out water fast but got a smaller slower drip. All I could fucking think was "great, just what I need.". Well walked outside and heard construction going on blocks away even though I could not see it. Finally asked a neighbor and they were having the same problem. Now either the county was doing something or a private contractor hit a pipe and didn't realize it. Good news for me is it wasn't me.
So I am sure by this time tomorrow it will be back to normal.

That would be a relief.
I have a well, pump and storage tank. I wake up to no water and whatever it is, I'm on the hook for fixing it.
The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

Actually the construction blocks away was not the problem. Turns out they had a major water main break about 6 miles north of me that affects 10s of thousands of people. Funny but my local news station didn't cover the story. Still good news because it was not my own personal pipe.

Me too. But I turned the main off at my parents' house...
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

UGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!
Ok water seems to be coming back, but just about 20 mins ago we had a severe thunderboomer blow through and POW!, Bolt of lightening hit close to my house, funny thing is, lights didn't go out but my cable did, my internet never went out though. Now I have no cable TV......... ARGGGGGGG!
Meh, it will be ok. Just annoying. Enough people complain and I am sure just like the water, there will be a crew out here to fix it at some point.

Yet I BET you won't give thanks to God for clearing up your cable!
