Continuing my string of bad luck, somebody appears to have hacked the Jennifer Crusie Facebook page and I can’t get into it, they’ve removed me as administrator. Could somebody here look to see if Jennifer Crusie on Facebook is still accessible? Not Jenny Crusie, that’s still there, or was the last time I looked.
Argh.
So for reasons I will not go into, I am currently living in an apartment in a building connected to a care facility. Not because I need care, I can walk again, so no worries. I just moved in today and, thrilled with having an oven in the apartment, I decided to make mustard chicken and baked potatoes. You probably haven’t noticed this, but I am very food oriented, and I haven’t been able to cook for a month. So I preheated the oven, and when it hit 400, I threw in my potato. And the fire alarm went off and many people in wheel chairs came out into the halls. Because whoever had had the apartment before me had spilled something on the floor of the oven and the smoke went everywhere. I apologized to everybody, and now there are a lot of people who know me as the woman on the third floor who didn’t put her baked potato in the microwave like a normal person (they’re better in the oven). Except for the people in the care facility, which is where I moved from TODAY; they just said, “Jenny was baking a potato and set off the fire alarm.” Those people know me.
The fire department was very efficient. I forgive them for laughing about the potato.
