There is a silent killer in our home which invades during the winter months... it's called...
It's so bad that about a month ago Michael was leaving the house and decided to give me a kiss on the cheek before leaving. Innocent enough. Except that I was typing on my computer with my earbuds in, and when he walked across the carpet and kissed me, an electric shock rocketed through my head and OUT MY EAR!

OUR HUMIDIFIER
And since then, Michael has become obsessed with it. He checks on it regularly throughout the day to make sure it still has enough water. He even called to me tonight, from the shower mind you, to see if I could check on the water level and fill it up. Needless to say, I declined and informed him that it could wait until he got out of the shower.
It's really quite humorous.
However, I must admit there has been a drastic change in our quality of life as a result of this little guy. Gone are the days of electrically-charged good-byes. Hallelujah!!!
