- gail is now scarfing up some frozen yogurt...and i'm full of junkfood while
- playing bridge....did have one great moment....i put a cd on the player down
- staris while gail was downstairs....and was trying to make it work....
- hadn't realized that someone had pushed the alternate speakers button....and
- there ARE no alternate speakers....so it was cranked with no sound coming out.
- and gail was just starting to steam the milk....and had read all the directions
-
- about dangers of steam and not blowing up the expresso maker....the fm was
- between stations....and i hit the speaker button in my oneeye mode....and
- it BLASTED static and noise.....and the fringes of a metalstation....
- and after a few seconds i got it shut off....but meanwhile our friends
- said 'is gail allright'???and i realized she was in the kitchen justabout
- passed out from fright....she was REALLY panicked....but i went out and
- picked her up from the edge of counter....and she came around....
-
- all is well now....and I THINK she can laugh about it now..... 8-)
