Life The Hard Way

**Iowanian** · 01-03-2009, 07:24 PM

Like many of you, for some unknown reason, I've had to learn many, many lessons the hard way.

Someone tells you not to do something, but you just have to anyway.....

Share those stories and the lesson learned.

Being a "nice guy" does not mean you will get laid.

**Bugeater** · 01-03-2009, 07:27 PM

Wow. I wouldn't know where to begin....

For example.

5 minutes from now, Brideowanian will be coming downstairs. She'll be soaked from the bath of our 2 girls, which isn't going well and wasn't pleased when they went up.

Before going up, I decided that as part of my healthier diet attempt, I was going to boil some eggs for supper(she didn't like that because, well, eggs do things to me). I chose the mircowave, a cereal bowl, 2/3 full of water and 4 eggs.

She told me not to do it(even though I've done it before successfully) told me they would explode and even pulled it up on google to warn me.

Not me....I'm an effing cave man in my own cave and I KNOW HOW TO USE FIRE!!!!

Anyway, about 5 minutes into a 7 minute cook.....from the chair in front of the game BLAMO!!!!!!

Door blown open....stuff knocked off of top of microwave, a lady-doo-dad from the wall broken on the floor and the kitchen looks like Humpty Dumpty's family reunion was just hit with a suicide bomber.

Iowanian is going to be in for it soon.....

and now I know.....Just boil eggs on the stove.

oh boy....foot steps.

Don't trust the lawyer your wife's family knows to handle the divorce for both of you just because it saves you money. It only saves in the short term.

Garden hose. Shop-Vac. Quick!

I'm going to miss that Iowanian guy.

Dude, you're in for 10 years of "remember when I told you not to cook eggs in the Microwave? Listen to me now."

Stay of execution.

The good news is, the fussing/teething young one, and the splashing drowned out the sound of the blast. I've scrubbed the egg guts off of everything, run ice and bleech through the disposal afterwards...

The bad news.....a few squirts of fabreeze airspray doesn't remove the stench of the death of the Dumpty family.

I knew I was screwed with 3yroldowanian came hopping into the kitchen as I put the finishing touches on and said "something stinks, clear upstairs".

She's giving a bottle to youngestowanian.....and I'll read to oldestchildowanian soon and wait for my beating.

Maybe I'll run and go to my brothers....
