A miracle?
I really thought I’d witnessed something miraculous this morning. In my own kitchen.
I like my coffee hot and the one I had made earlier had just begun to cool a little. It was still pretty hot but needed 20 seconds in the microwave, just to get it right. I popped it in, set the dial and waited for the ping. When I took the coffee out, it was stone cold. Well, not stone cold, but room temperature and a lot colder than it was when I’d put it in.
At first, I thought I was dreaming. I know enough about physics and how microwaves work to know that what I’d just seen was simply not possible. I pinched myself, not asleep. I tasted the coffee again, still cold. My heart started to race as my mind tried to figure out what had happened.
I peered into the oven, unsure of what I was looking for, when it struck me. At the back was a mug of coffee that I had placed in there last night to heat up and had then forgotten about. During the 20 seconds, the turntable had revolved by half a revolution and the two mugs had changed places.

Just today, I went in to my dad’s little office/studio to pick up the phone and cancel MetroLift. I went to my room to get the number from my cellphone but by the time I was in my room I had forgotten what I was going to do. (I had placed the phone behind the seat of my chair. I do that a lot.) Anyway, I went back to the living room and thought, “ahhh, right! I need to make that call” And I went over to my dad’s studio and was shocked to see that the phone was missing. Minutes later, I accidentally reach behind me and find the damn phone which was behind my on the chair all along. heh

haha – you sound just like me, i’d lose my nuts, if they weren’t screwed in lol
12.08.22 at 17.49
ha. Careful with those nuts Kyle. You just never know. 😉
I’d loose my nuts to, if I had any. Space cases. xo

For a second there, I thought one of the great mysteries of our universe was about to be answered. Thanks for teasing me to the precipice with your cold coffee and dropping me on my ass. 😉

LOL. Love it. This is so something that I would do. I’m a notorious scatterbrain.
12.08.19 at 11.54

all too easily my friend, all too easily – i did it again today lol
12.08.18 at 06.43
This sounds like me when I was talking on my cell phone while looking for it… and I announced to the person that I couldn’t find it. Okay, I suppose mine’s a little worse… Ha!
12.08.17 at 20.17
and a lot funnier 🙂
12.08.18 at 06.41
lol, wow, I was really confused for a minute there 🙂

12.08.17 at 16.26

12.08.17 at 12.26
that would be some impressive alchemy
12.08.17 at 16.25
I think your microwave is trying it’s hand at being a magician Kyle.
12.08.17 at 12.15
it had me fooled
12.08.17 at 16.25

12.08.17 at 18.39
Rofl…sorry to laugh, but that’s funny. Still laughing. And I’m with Foxy on this one…coffee and Microwave? YUK
And with Mrs. Weebles…you could’a made a fortune! Now that you’re thinking of it…go ahead, invent it. What would you call it? You should do a poll to get some ideas…
12.08.17 at 11.54
i think it defies the laws of physics lol
12.08.17 at 16.24
Darn…was so looking forward to your invention. Can’t you defy the laws that defy? Is there a term for that? Come on, shirley, you can do it!
12.08.17 at 17.14
Your coffee and microwave were in cahoots, trying to throw you into a state of confusion I’d say!
What if for some reason you never figured this out. Maybe you’d be sitting in your kitchen all day with your brow scrinched up wondering, wondering — ‘Now, how in the world?’
12.08.17 at 11.49
haha – that could so easily have happened
12.08.17 at 11.53
That’s too bad, if somehow your microwave had been able to quickly cool things down, you could have made a fortune.
12.08.17 at 11.30
that’s what i was starting to think
12.08.17 at 11.31
You had me up to putting your coffee in the microwave YUK!!!!!!!!
12.08.17 at 11.24
hahaha
12.08.17 at 11.26
Bad man why you do that to a good cup of coffee
12.08.17 at 11.52
that’s how i like it
12.08.17 at 11.53
I knew why I don’t have a microwave hehe
12.08.17 at 14.15
LOL This sounds like something I would do and experience!!!
12.08.17 at 11.23
lol – yes it does – maybe it was
12.08.17 at 11.24
Hmmmm We are like the coffee…not sure which one of us is the…..
