- Mood: hungry
- Music: stomach growling
- Word of the Day: microwave
You know, people complain about new technology a lot, but I've never heard complaints about the microwave. Even my dad understands the need for a microwave. Well, this week will be a crash course in How to Live Without a Microwave. I woke up this morning to the sounds of many crashing pans, pots, and plates. After managing to sleep another few hours, I emerged from the bedroom to discover the source of the ruckus. My roommate had absconded at 8 am with her microwave. Now, I fully realize it's her microwave. It's just that for the next week, there will be no popping a frozen meal in the microwave for three minutes. Instead, there will be a popping the frozen meal in the oven for thirty-eight minutes. I kid you not. My cooking time just went up ten-fold. So I will be rather cranky this week . . . very cranky this week. I'm not used to working this hard for meals. I don't think my loaf of bread will be around much longer. Then it's on to my Chef Boyardee. Hopefully that won't take much longer on the stove than in the microwave . . . but I only have one can of that before moving on to the frozen meals.
