Water, Water, Everywhere...
The levy has burst in our town, and the lake has overrun its banks. We have no water to use in our homes, and probably won't have any until Wednesday. Every store in town is out of bottled water. I may have to brush my teeth with Coca-Cola. The phone lines are all wonky. A lot of transformers have been blowing around the neighbour, and I'm scared we might also soon be without power. I've watched a beautiful building that I love all but be destroyed by the flood. I am not in the mood to be polite for the next few days, so I thought I post a warning lest someone think that I am trying to metaphorically beat them to death with a shovel.
