cool, cool water


H2O, nature's cocktail, and "Hey, who's that tall drink of water?". Yeah, I know...

Actually, it was the straw that sparked this one. I have total electric in my house, and I'll tell you...electric heat blows! It makes the house too dry. I feel like Nosferatu every morning.

So, I've got plants, humidifiers, and ...I drink a lot of water. Usually, I just have a gallon jug by my easel ( classy...I know) , but this time I had the glass ...and the ice and... the straw. Cool twisty-light-bending-straw!

Oh, this is also the title of one of my favorite Beach Boys songs ( from the album Sunflower, 1970 ...also, the year I was born).
