Today was a typical Saturday... cleaning the house and toolin around. I had all the windows open in the house. I love to do that, especially when I clean. I have these big windows with long white curtains and I love to watch them blow in the wind. It reminds me of one of those advertisments for a hotel with a balcony in a tropical destination - some woman in a flowy skirt standing in the entry way looking at palm trees and the ocean. ANYWAY (wow, talk about digression).
So I was cleaning and I heard the police come by outside on the street in their car and they had their speaker on. They made multiple announcements to "The residents of Jersey City" about how it is unsafe to drink the water and to stop drinking it immediately. No teeth brushing, nada! Thank god I had a giant thing of spring water in my fridge.
Not thinking too logically, my friends and I decided to go out to dinner in Hoboken. Why we thought that the water would only affect the residences and not the restaurants is beyond me. We finally found a restaurant that was serving - they had cleaned their veggies earlier in the day and hadn't run out yet. It was a good dinner and the funniest part was that we could not order water to drink...so we were all FORCED to drink some liquor :)
