Don't Do This

After several longs days at work, you finally get to come home right after work to just hang out and do nothing in particular. You walk in the door and drop all your stuff. With all the rain and blusteriness we have been having you decide to start a fire in your fireplace. After that is done, you strip off the dress, the jacket, the bra and underwear you are wearing, because all day you have been thinking about those comfy clothes you were going to put on. But before you can put them on you run quickly to the bathroom. Once you get there, you realize it isn't going to be a short bathroom break and start thinking about other things. When you are done you get up, wash your hands and you start hearing a beeping. At first you think it is your phone, but no it's the fire alarm. You run out to the fireplace and look at the fire, it looks fine, but then you look up at the smoke alarm and realize there is tons of smoke. Then it hits you, the last time after you had a fire, you shut the flew and when you started this fire, you never opened it. You, think crap, I'm naked! Are the fire men going to come? You run and open the flew, grab some clothing and put it on (it ends up all backwards of course), open some windows and then start fanning the smoke alarm with all your might to get that stupid beeping to stop.
There are many lessons to learn from this, but the one I take away is fanning is easier when you are completely dressed.

Kili... I am glad to hear that you are okay! But you did put a huge smile on my face because I am sure that we can see ourselves in that situation. LOL>>>
