Please forgive me, but you opened yourself up for this.

Maybe your nose is too close to your mouth.

  One of the principal causes of
  cloudy water in developed countries and well-managed water systems is
  the completely harmless behavior of air bubbles in the water. All water
  has some quantity of dissolved air, usually to an unnoticeable degree.
  However, in some cases tap water comes out of the faucet with somewhat
  larger, more visible water bubbles, still sufficiently tiny to appear
  like a general cloudiness. In some cases, the water even has a milky
  look. When outdoor temperatures drop, there is a large temperature
  difference between the pipes delivering water and the interior where the
  water arrives; this change in temperature can aggravate the tendency
  for "cloudy" air bubbles to form. For example, the water from the Los
  Angeles aqueduct originally comes from the icy waters of the eastern
  Sierras; it remains cool until it arrives through home faucets. To
  remove the cloudiness, simply let the water sit at room temperature for
  several minutes.

Cool, as a Libra, we're more concerned about maintaining a balance in life.
