Vegetate to Close at the End of the Month
It's that time of year again, D.C.! The magical season of chlorine-scented and flavored tap water is back. The Washington Aqueduct announced yesterday that it will temporarily resume the use of chlorine next week to treat our drinking water, and warned that the special odor and taste we've all come to know and love every spring will be back for at least a month. The water is still safe to drink, the Aqueduct was sure to point out. In addition to the District, Arlington County, Falls Church and parts of Fairfax County will also experience the funky tap water of April (exact dates announced by the Aqueduct: April 6-May 4). Yum. Drink up!

I like how the Post says there is a "slight chlorine smell". Since I have moved to DC, there is nothing slight about it. It is strong and I have to have bottled water in the bathroom just to brush my teeth. My shower has a filter because the chlorine dries my hair out so much. I guess if I wanted whiter teeth, I could just rinse with the water, but I think I will let my toothpaste do the trick.
