Dumb Luck

I had an interesting evening yesterday.

First- somehow the front burner on the stove was accidentally left on for the entire day. However, that particular stove element is on the fritz, and will turn itself off randomly. It probably cut itself off not long after it was turned on, which may be the reason that we didn't notice it was on 'high'. No damage.

Second- Brian and I had a complete "oh shit" moment when we closed the front door to go for a run, and neither one of us had grabbed the keys. So we ran to the library downtown and called the landlord, who happened to be located one block away from our house when he answered his cell phone. No need to call the locksmith! Hooray!

Lucky me.

Lost one round, but the prize wasn't anything, a knife in the back, and more of the same...
