I know this guy everyone calls Crebbs... he came home one day after pulling a triple shift. He says he was completely exhausted, barely awake, but very hungry. So he sat a pot of water on the stove, brought it to a boil and dropped 4 hot dogs in... and he stood their and waited, and shifted his weight back and forth as his felt his thoughts get drowsy.
When the hot dogs finally looked like they were ready, he reached into the water with his fingers to grab one. *Yeouch* he said, and drew his hand back and looked at it - dumbfounded as to why it hurt. So he shook it off and reached in again... only to have the exact identical reaction. Crebbs says he did this four times before his brain finally made sense of why it hurt and he went and got a fork...
Since then, every time one of the few of us that were around to hear him tell this story do something blatantly stupid... we say we 'Pulled a Crebbs" =)
Just because...
I was boiling eggs yesterday and I left them on the range while I went to my bedroom and logged onto AW (of course).
Well,
about 45 minutes later, I heard this "pop, pop, POP"
Yep, I'd forgot they were cooking and when I ran into the kitchen, I found egg all over the stove and the counter and the floor and the cabinets - It really stunk the kitchen up, too - Had to turn the exhaust fan on and light a Yankee Candle.
I plunged the pot into the sink, filled it with cold water, peeled the remaining eggs and was able to make egg salad for Mr. Hunny's lunch for today.
Oh, and YES. I did burn my fingers on the "hot" eggs.
Is there a moral to this story?
I dunno.
I'm rambling now, aren't I?
Ok,
Carry on.
< I lurve and miss you too, Milly >
Reminds me of the time I microwaved the leftover Brussels sprouts a little too long. When I heard the pop, pop, pop in the microwave, I thought it was popcorn.
I'm so excited! I've got a bud on my gardenia bush for the first time ever.
You just reminded me to check on my cactus
We've had a lot of beautiful yellow blooms on the wild prickly pear cactus around here.
Just because I'm so horrible with plants that I can manage to kill cacti.
I have never been sexually harassed.
