Let's file this away....
 

....under the "this could only happen to me" section of my life.

Take note - it's 1 am.

Story time.

Megan is awake while the rest of her family slumbers. She decides that she's in the mood for a hot chocolate. Megan quietly goes out into the kitchen, and in the dark manages to gather all needed materials to make said hot chocolate. Megan walks over to the water thing to get the water. She pushes down on the hot one, cup in hand. Not only is there no hot water coming out, the cold water doesn't want to stop coming out. Megan panicks and puts the cup aside. She frantically uses her hands to transport water from the water thing to the sink.

Megan realizes she needs light. She pushes the button to turn on the fan's light. Then she realizes that the switch on the other side of the room needs to be turned on so that the light will work. Megan dashes to the other side of the room (slipping on a nice puddle of water all the way) and flips the switch. She then rushes back over to the water thing (which is now making gurgling sounds) and pushes the button. Let there be light!

Megan continues running back and forth to and from the sink to transport the water, oblivious to the fact that there is a nice pool forming beneath her. She decides that she needs to gather more water at one time. SO she leaves the flowing water and heads for the cabinet, she grabs several cups and bowls. She runs back over and fills them up. Then she realizes that she has no more storage space to keep the water.

By this time, Megan's parents have awoken. She assures them that all is well, when in fact she may be submerged in water if this does not get under control. She looks down at the hot water thing, and realizes that it needs to be pushed UP to turn off the water, rather than pushing it down. She then throws some of the water into the tea pot on the stove (Because she WILL get her hot chocolate, darnit) and starts cleaning up the water.

Eventually, Megan sits down at the computer, and begins writing a rather long passage to her internet friends about her event.

Oh sweetie trust that I am laughing with you, not at you. LOL If it helps, been there don't that one myself. hee hee

P.S. I bet it was the best darn cup of hot cocoa too!!

Actually, it was quite nasty haha.

PS - that's ok, I was laughing too. :p (afterwords, of course. During the ordeal I was cursing it off *in my head, of course haha)

:thumbs up :yelrotflm :eyetearss :eyetearss :eyetearss :yelrotflm :bravo:

I hope you enjoy your Hot Cocoa as much as I enjoyed your tale!

Ok, maybe this will help ease your pain. One day i took the girls to the mall. As we were walking through the food court i slipped. My feet went in 2 separate directions, as did my kids. My cell phone rings and my daughter is giggling uncontrollably trying to ask if I was ok. I see her in the window of the store rolling on the floor laughing!!!!

:thumbs up

:yelrotflm :yelrotflm :lol tears :lol tears :yelrotflm :yelrotflm

You guys are killing me! "Hi Mom! Are you OK?"

I'm laughing with you. :p Oh my gosh - poor you! HAHAH. that does sound pretty funny to watch though.

Seriously though Megan. Just tell your folks you were trying to give them an indoor pool for Christmas or an ice rink. :D

That'll teach you to stay up late. LOL Get some sleep.

Megan,

Thank you for sharing the story about how karma comes back to bite you, well, where you sit.

You viciously attacked me with that avatar, and Mr. Karma spoke to you through Mr. Hot Chocolate and Mr. Hot Water.

Ha ha ha ha ha.

P.S. Rusty says he's hungry and that you should dump the avatar if you love him.

Thanks for starting my day with a laugh, and laugh, I did. It's good to be able to laugh at ourselves(like yesterday - as sleep depraved as I already was, I set my alarm, got up and got ready to go to work only to find as I grab my coat and look at the clock - it was 4 a.m.:eek: . I was only 3 hrs early:rolleyes: ). PS-I love your avatar(sorry, Mike, but it is hilarious:D ).

Don't be messing with karma! You saw what it did to Megan!

LOL! That sounds like something that would happen to me! :p

Megan - only you could be so descriptive that I feel as if I'm watching while it is happening. And, I'm not laughing at you - but with you!!!!! Sure hope the hot chocolate was good!!!

my first post of the morning! what a funny thing to wake up to!! But i have to admit I have to avert my :D eyes everytime THE avatar....lol

I'm glad you didn't fall and break you neck. LOL
