Remember "Clue"?

Do the synapses not touch?


Follow me down this road… it was the beginning of the “Clue” game that had started off in my head.



“Uh… when I got into the shower it water was lukewarm, but by the time I got out, it was chilly.”


Drip… Drip…. Goes the hair on the living room floor.


With a raised brow I look at him, “Okay…. Like, the hot water heater went out?”


“I don’t know”


A confused gaze follows him as he heads to his room.


“Hey…” …wait…. “ Did you check?”


Shaggy head pokes out the bedroom door. “No… I mean, I can… I’d prefer if one of ya’ll did… but… yea… I can.”


A minute later, after a bit of shuffling in the laundry room he saunters back out. “I heard the water gurgling, and it feels warm, so yea… it must be on.”


~blink~


Back into his room he goes with out a care in the world.


There I sit, trying to finish up the series of “Legend of the Seeker” with my son.


Staring after my 40 year old roommate and trying to figure out if I can put him INTO the hot water heater to test the temperature.


Needless to say I re-started up the water heater in time for the toddlers bath..



Oh…"I suggest it was Mrs. Bastien, in the laundry room, with the bleach." Pretty good guess....
