Woo-hoo! We have no hot water in our building thanks to a burst hot-water pipe. It's an old building, so repairs are slow and delicate and will continue until October 2. Korean-language announcements have been blaring with annoying frequency through our PA systems since yesterday evening, and today, I got an email from my old company: I'm apparently still on their email list (I wrote back to ask them to take me off their list). The email basically told me what I already knew. So—sponge baths for yours truly for the time being! No worries—I've been in plenty of Korean motels with bad plumbing. It's not a huge deal. That said, here's hoping the repairs are finished before October 2!

Welcome to my world! Well, actually, we don't have hot water pipes. Just a little box in the shower that heats the water as it passes through.
ReplyDeleteI'll be heating up water in my electric teapot, then mixing it in a bowl with cold water to produce warm sponge-bathing water. Yay. And I can afford to bathe every other day.
