No Water Still

12:28 AM


The past week I haven't been working much. I've been burnt out. According to my Github, I had 0 contributions on August 3rd and August 6th, meaning I didn't work on any of my projects on those days. What was I doing? Before that though, for around a month, I've been working like 12 hour days, seriously. I don't even know how I was able to do that.


Anyway, there's still no water. The entire past week too, I didn't have water for most of the day. Throughout the week the water would usually come on at midnight, and be on until like 6 AM, but not this time. For the past 2 days, over 48 hours, I haven't had any water at all. I'm slowly running out of reserve water too, the flushing water for the toilet, I still have plenty of drinking water that can last me 4 days. However, I probably only have 2-3 flushes left. Let me check.


Okay, I am getting desperate now with the flushing water. I only have 2 flushes left. I can literally only use the toilet two more times to flush. This probably means that I should lay off on eating for a bit, so that I don't use the bathroom any more.


Yeah, I have plenty of drinking water, I have like 4 gallons of potable water, we are good there. But I can't flush the toilet anymore. I only have 6 gallons of non-potable water left. I use this water for washing my hands too, so once I'm out of this, I'm out.


I haven't showered in a week. There's clothes that are piling up that need to be washed. I haven't cooked any meals either in an entire week, which is fine, I've gone months before without cooking anything. The reason I can't cook anything is because I have to wash dishes if I cook, and without water, there's no way to wash any dishes. Right now instead of washing dishes I'm just leaving them in the fridge and reusing them when I need to, I put them in the fridge so insects can't get to them. But yeah I need to be careful of eating. Since I eat a lot of fiber, that requires using the bathroom 1-3 times per day.


Maybe I'm forced into fasting now. With such a limited number of toilet flushes left, I can't eat anymore. The problem is though, I will feel hunger throughout the day. That's the reason I ate today, even though I could have chosen to fast. I do hate fasting now, but I think 24 hours of fasting isn't too bad. Anything beyond that will be excessive, but I think 24 hours is doable. The thing is, I don't know if we will have water back in 24 hours. San Juan, the capital of Puerto Rico, is in a "rationing" mode right now, where most of the city doesn't have any water for 48 hours.


It's something so normal for me. I already didn't have water for the past week, except it would just turn on for a couple of hours late at night. I should have saved more water, ugh. But yeah, this is annoying. I'm so tired too. What am I going to do?


The app for AYAT is done. It is done. Should it be published now? I'm contemplating on it. i'm just pretty tired, like I said. I've been working 12+ hour days for the past month. But yeah, maybe we should just publish it now, or at least start the process. I am still just so tired though.
