so much for that

upon returining to my apartment from my morning run, i found it filled with vapors reminiscent of turpentine, crazy glue, or rubber cement. the workers redoing my patio must have been gluing some crap to the concrete.

i turned on the kitchen and bathroom fans but that didn't seem to help much. i opened the bedroom window but right outside of it was a worker taking a cigarette break. i closed the window.

i took a quick shower and put on some boxers and pants and went outside my front door into the hallway.

there i proceeded to floss, brush my teeth, take my allergy pills, and get dressed. i missed my morning espresso and web browsing, and presently feel a bit dizzy (though that may just be hunger or psychosomatics).

you'd think that if the workers were going to fill my apartment with toxic fumes they'd let me know beforehand. i really don't have any spare brain cells to donate to the cause of redoing my patio (for which i did not actually ask). urgkh.
