Wanna laugh? Here's a good one!!!
So, I'm sitting at the computer "watching" 3 listings that I want. At the same time, I'm making dinner...fried chicken. Well, I was almost done and turned on a burner (electric) to boil water for the frozen corn while I ran back to the computer which is like 7 feet away.
Okay, my dumb ass turned on the wrong burner! I so intelligently, had turned on the front burner which had the foil lined sheet pan with the finished chicken on it, which also had a brown paper bag and a couple of paper towels to absorb the oil. The damn thing caught fire!!! I start hitting it with the tongs I'm holding, while my husband starts yelling at me "get some wet towels or something". I start screaming at Yes-Yes to take No-No upstairs cause the smoke is getting really bad, hubby runs over to the sink with a wad of paper towels to wet them and comes running back over to dab out the fire spots...Duh! He didn't wet them enough at all (trying to save the dinner I suppose, food is too important) and soon he was holding a ball of fire! I'm goin "Holy Shit!!! OMG!!! Put that out!!" while he's yellin at me "get that outside!". So, I run the flaming pan to the backyard while wondering if he even saw the flames in his hand, smack it some more and run back in so I don't miss the stupid auctions. Can you believe I won all 3?! Meanwhile, my mom comes down from her room asking "what's burning?". She was alseep. I'm laughing telling her what she missed, she goes out to look at what I couldn't save, then tells me that it's still burning. Oh Crap! I almost set more than dinner on fire. Not much in our yard has been watered lately. (We're under "water watch" in Ca and yes, the state is still on fire)
What have we learned? Ebay can kill...and...two stupids don't make a smart. LOL!!!!!!!!
