So next time you pour a glass that looks like a ghost threw up in it, don’t panic. Remember my Tuesday morning theater show. It’s almost definitely just air, and you have nothing to fear.
If it still bugs you, call your water company. They love explaining this stuff, I swear. (They probably get three calls a day from people like us.) In the meantime, pour a glass, watch it clear, and feel smug about your new plumbing knowledge. You’ve officially leveled up in adulting.
Now go drink your water—clear or not. Hydration waits for no one. Cheers!
