That Which We Call A Nail By Any Other Name Would Be As Pointy

After all the "flashback" posts today I thought I'd post something current and relevant. What a switch.

I learned a life lesson this Sunday morning: if you don't know how long it's been in the fridge, look before you drink it. Unfortunately, I learned the hard way. An innocent-looking pitcher was sitting in our refrigerator, and nobody knew how long it had been

there. I poured a little of the contents into a glass, and it turned out to be orange juice. When it hit my mouth however, it was more like beer, carbonated and having a fermented feel to it. I thought it odd, and when I opened the pitcher, I discovered a plethora of mold, even large chunks of it floating in the juice itself. Needless to say I did not drink the rest of what was in my glass. It is still unclear exactly how long that pitcher had been in the fridge, th

ough I'd estimate around 5 weeks. Somebody probably made juice one time in the days before we moved in and forgot about it. Lucky me!

The other major event today was beginning putting the roof on the shop. Though I really enjoy being up on the roof, I didn't enjoy the process of roofing a whole heck of a lot, and

don't think I'll be making a career out of it. I did put in a good number of hours though, and we're finished almost half of the roof. Hopefully it won't rain for a couple days so we can finish

(wishful thinking...).

That's it for today. Tomorrow brings new things...more roofing. I'll look at what I'm drinking before I drink it though.
