First, I want to say Binkle was right.
Typical Binkle.
At approximately 12:44 today, I was walking through the hallways of my highschool with Binks when I felt nature call. Not possessing any desire for him to follow me, I branched away from him and went into the hallway with the washroom.
I pushed my shoulder into the door, but it was locked. My head banged against it, and with a disgruntled groan, I trudged away. My bladder was full to bursting. I didn’t want to go into a math test with a full bladder. Suddenly, Mr. Doherty (our school principal) comes onto the announcement with an exciting tidbit.
“There is a water advisory in the city of Stratford, students must remember that…garbled under the sounds of the students in the hallway”
Apparently, shortly before noon today, a truck shipping chemicals to a local carwash hooked its pipe into the water supply pipe instead of the supply tank pipe. How this happens, I can’t even begin to fathom as of yet? Human error? Drunkiness on the job? Poorly labelled pipes? My religion classes at school would enforce me not to seek the placement of blame.
“I feel that this misplacement of chemicals for an establishment of generic qualities was unnecessary because it offends the rights and dignity of humans as well removing them of their capacity for an existence of absolute cleanliness.”
So now, water is being rationed in our town. We are all unsure of how long the advisory will be in effect, but they are scheduled to make an announcement as to the status of the situation at 10:00 AM tomorrow morning.
On the plus side, I don’t have to go to school. On the bad side of things, Fraser and Dean didn’t bring Code Veronica or Zero!!!
God Dammit!!
