This is bullshit where is Tico Torres

We woke up this morning and Mr. Jenner found the toilet in the master bath was not working quite right. Then we found a significant lack of water pressure in the kitchen sinks. Oh glorious day. What fun what fun. I was going to wash my hair this morning. Plans have been changed. I am going to have to rock my dirty hair awhile longer. (the dried spit-up adds a touch of glamour)
I called up the Water company and it seems a water main broke. Most unpleasant but at least they are attending to it. Things aren't going well for the water company. Last week another main broke and there was a fair amount of flooding downtown.

I think all I can do today is watch Cary Grant movies and eat biscuits. There will also be several games of peek-a-boo and conversations about how Mummy doesn't want her lips pulled off.

I started reading Bay of Noon by Shirley Hazzard. I love how she writes. Her descriptions are sometimes quite simple but there is such a lush undertone to them that makes it seem more like a painting.

I saw it on the news this morning. My husband was impressed that Channel 5 could spend so much time talking about it as "breaking news." Then he said it was like living in a small community when a cow gets loose in the streets. Anyway, you had to be there. I lol'd.

Oh man a cow on main street would be awesome. But your husband is right. "ohmygawd water water water."
Though it is significant since a water main broke last week and the sewers are over-whelmed these days.
