Not the best way to start the day

As I moved into my friend's apartment yesterday, I noticed a sign by the elevator. According to this little sign, the water in the building would be turned off today between the hours of 9 AM and 1 PM. The pipes needed fixing or something. Annoying, yes, but understandable. I made plans to get up by 8:30 in order to squeeze in a shower while I could.

They shut the water off at 8:35.

I was in the shower. Covered with soap. Shampoo in my hair. Had to rinse with 2 partially-filled 1/2 liter bottle of water and some melted ice cubes.

Now my skin itches.

This does not seem like the best start to my new residence.
