This Old House

The house is twelve years old and counting, which means that a door has fallen off an upper kitchen cabinet, an air conditioner has had to be replaced, and the water softener has gone kaput. By the way, did you know that if you wash your hair in unsoftened water, it takes more than one rinse to get the shampoo and conditioner out?

So now if you'll excuse her, Fio, whose newly-washed hair is stiff as a board, will run upstairs to stand under the shower for a good fifteen minutes.
