Murphy Strikes Yet Again

It figures

It had to happen. And you know what? I'm not even a little surprised.

Last night I walked over to the grocery to stock up on food that I can heat in the microwave. I bought enough to tide me over for a few days. Just a few minutes ago the generator that supplies the power for my microwave took a shit. Figures. The belt is shredded. No power, no heat, no nothing. So now I have a stock of food but no microwave in which to heat it.

I really can't afford it but if I am spending another night in this mud hole I am going to walk the mile to the closest bar and have a couple of beers. I'll worry about eating tomorrow.

Yes, pick up a nice little hottie, sweet talk her , tell her it's your b-day and when she all ready to rock and roll and tells you you can have anything you want, just say,"Cool .. can I borrow your microwave?"

Now that's smooth.

Ouch.  Really sorry to read about these problems Mason.  Hopefully you can find a working Microwave to use somewhere close, if not at least find yourself a nice hot meal at a fair price.

That bastard Murphy... When you see him next, smack him in the chops for me too, mate.

Oh yeah, if you found a hottie, you probably wouldn't need the microwave. You could warm your tucker up on her

Thanks all. I finally moved from where I was and I'll be damned if there wasn't a bar right next door to the truckstop I pulled into. Had a few free beers and a couple of free shots.

There were a couple of girls there but not of the hottie variety.

I suppose I should have said 'tucker' is Australian slang for food. But I'm glad it tickled you anyway.
