I’m so happy! Today, the water advisory was called off.

The turbidity is much lower now, though the primary reservoir usually used for Vancouver is still out of service.

I celebrated by drinking a Diet Coke.  Which was probably worse for me than the water.

Overheard

“The desire of the man is for the woman, but the desire of the woman is for the desire of the man.”

...who said it?

“Do stuff. Be clenched, curious. Not waiting for inspiration’s shove or society’s kiss on your forehead. Pay attention. It’s all about paying attention. Attention is vitality. It connects you with others. It makes you eager. Stay eager.”

...who said it?

“The tragedy of life is not that it ends so soon, but that we wait so long to begin it.”

...who said it?

“The bonds of matrimony are like any other bonds - they mature slowly.”

...who said it?

“When, after a few years or a few months of a relationship, we find that we’re still unfulfilled, we blame our partners and take up with somebody more promising. This can go on and on—series polygamy—until we admit that while a partner can add sweet dimensions to our lives, we, each of us, are responsible for our own fulfillment. Nobody else can provide it for us, and to believe otherwise is to delude ourselves dangerously and to program for eventual failure every relationship we enter.”

...who said it?
