Picture of the Week: Filter

The light started blinking. Our water purifier needed its filter replaced. Two guys came with a gleaming white cylinder filter, opened up the tank and this (brown, slimy, putrid) bad boy popped out. It looked like...well....stuff that is brown and slimy and you probably don't want to drink. 

Honestly, seeing this made Brian a little grossed out when he went to fill his glass. It made me happy. Our filter is doing it's job! Kinda like that rewarding feeling you get when you blow your nose. Or am I getting a little too personal now?
