When I turned on the tap in the kitchen this morning, nothing came out. I do hope that this is because they were working on the boiler in the basement and had to turn the water off again, otherwise it might mean there is a Very Big Problem going down. To be honest, I'm a little worried. Good gods, I hope it is because they turned off the water. [EDIT 2:18 PM: When I got home, everything worked correctly. The pipes were not frozen, thank the gods.]

Okay. So. Yesterday was kind of... ehhh. Very cold, as y'all noticed from my last entry. Well, I did indeed skip intro lecture, but had to get up soon afterward so that I could go do something related to my Oral Lit class. 'twas a showing of a filmed performance of Bloodclaat, which we'll be studying next week (I think?). It was awesome. I look forward to reading it.

Not much happened yesterday evening. I marked in my office for several hours, until it was 'round time to go home. Mostly the papers aren't as bad as the ones from the last batch, but there was one that made my eye twitch. As I said to [livejournal.com profile] jesusphreaq, "I wanted to go all marxist-feminist on this person's ass, but decided to refrain". Hah. She said she might put that bit of dialogue in her journal, but I said that no, I'd do it, 'cause my journal entries tend to be all "fuck this" and "fuck that", so it'd be more suiting.

Anyway.

Went home late, and after a meagre supper spent the evening at the Roastery. It was busy, but not too busy. Thank the gods. I managed to get a good amount of reading done. However, for about an hour I was somewhat distracted. At the table next to me were two young men, probably students, having a philosophical debate. One of them was very, very handsome and it was quite difficult to keep myself from looking at him. Ah. Tall and well-dressed, wearing a light-coloured cotton shirt, black pants and black dress shoes (I have a thing for men who wear dress shoes. Screw sneakers). A charcoal-grey wool coat was draped over his shoulders. His hair was black and very soft-looking, neither too short nor too long, cut to just below the jaw-line. He wore black-framed glasses; not the thick-framed kind that is trendy, but the sort that gives a subtly intellectual look. His skin was a naturally dark colour and he had an intelligent, scholarly-looking face with smiling, upturned lips and an elegant, refined nose. His eyes were dark, with thick lashes. And ah, his voice~ it was deep, rich and warm.

Er. Yes. *cough* Anyway, as I was saying, he was so handsome that for the entire time he sat there having a philosophical debate with his friend about human rights and human nature, I was quite distracted, and had to force myself to stay still so that I would not turn my head to look at him too much. I tried to satisfy myself by staring at his reflection in the window instead. Tsk. Bloody good-looking men and their ability to distract me! Or damn me, and my tendency to be distracted.

Right, so, uh, forget my earlier mention that the pipes weren't frozen.

Turns out, the pipe in my kitchen did burst, but I didn't know it. Luckily the maintenance guy realized there was something wrong, otherwise I would've had no idea.

*slump* This is ridiculous. RIDICULOUS.

*My pipe did indeed freeze and crack. Fortunately, the maintenance guys came in and fixed it right quick. Hopefully there will be no repeats of such incidents. ... They came in while I was napping, so when I woke up I was quite confused. Oy. *facepalm* Anyway.

*Maintenance guys said that the boiler should be up and running tomorrow (crossing our fingers now) and that we will most definitely be compensated for our electricity bills during this period.

*I want to kidnap [livejournal.com profile] mumumugen. Wait, he'd probably like that. Depending on what I did with him after, that is. Is it still kidnapping if they like it?

*[livejournal.com profile] fyretoppaaa is like freakin' Big Brother or something. She's everywhere, and she's WATCHING. Fyre, honey, stop stalking me, it's creepy! D:

*Somewhat related: The very short fic I mentioned in my entry earlier today has been posted. My master list has been updated to reflect this.

*Because most of my afternoon was interrupted by maintenance tramping through my house, I lost much of my homework time. So now, hi-ho, hi-ho, it's off to the Roastery I go!
