These Things Only Happen to Me...

I had a really weird morning yesterday. I woke up and decided to jump in the shower, turned on the water and waited for it to get warm. I stuck my hand in and decided that it was too warm, so I reached for the cold water knob to adjust the temperature. Zap! The knob shocked me! Those of you who know me know just how well I function in the morning. My brain just doesn't turn on until about 2 hours after I wake up. So, I reached for the knob again, not quite believing that it had shocked me. Sure enough, it shocked me again. At that point, I decided to wake up my husband. I walked over to him and said "Honey, come make sure I'm not going crazy, please." I told him how the knob had shocked me. He touched it, and it shocked him. After a little bit of investigation, we found out that there is a short in the fan in the boys' room that was pumping excess electricity and causing the problem. We turned off the fan, and the knobs were back to normal. Goat is going to fix it as soon as he gets the chance, but for now, we are just keeping the fan off.
