Dude, where's my carafe?

Tuesday. Wake up. Stagger to kitchen. Push grind button. Clean filter. Clean carafe. Look for cups, cabinet empty. Get cup from dishwasher. Start dishwasher. Rinse cup. Get half n half. Filter into holder, coffee into filter. Fill... no carafe. Where carafe? Dishwasher? No. Counter? No. Fridge? No. Bathroom? No. Freezer? No. Stumble to bedroom. ( Read more... )

i like how step 5 was "clean carafe" yet somehow, 8 steps later... no carafe.

If you follow the story carefully (which works better in hindsight), you can see how it got in the cabinet, but I was in no condition to figure that out at the time

I like how there had to be a pants check!

On a couple of occasions (though not yet while work-bound), I've laced up my skates without completing the pants check. Then I have to decide whether I want to spend the time de-lacing & re-lacing before departing, or just take shorts/pants with me. The answer tends to depend on un-shorts-like the print on my boxers is at the time...

You're so cute.

That's a delightfully funny story. After today it's good to hear something like that. I think i'd die if it wasn't for the espresso machine in the lab.
