when it rains, it pours...

...so considering all that hard work i put into unplugging my tub saturday, you'd think i'd be enjoying the fruits of my labors and taking a nice hot shower, right? yeah, well, the pipes burst yesterday, and i had no hot water when i got home last night...nor this morning...nor when i got home from work tonight...i absolutely had to wash my filthy hair cuz i have a trader joe's after hours tasting party to go to (ah, the benefits of dating a trader joe crewmember!)...so in desperation, i washed my hair in ice cold water...

...and now i go to catch pneumonia in the hostile winter out there...actually, it's not too bad...it was a balmy 35 degrees when i got off the metra at 7:30 this evening...

...off i go into winter wonderland!...i hope i don't smell too bad...
