'What's that burning smell?'
   at 17:31 on Tue 24th January 2006
I did some washing up last night and left a little standing water on the surface where I was draining my stack of newly clean plates. When Erin arrived after work and said that she hadn't eaten, I offered to cook something for the both of us. So I turned the oven on to pre-heat.

A while later Stuart reminds me that my food is burning and I should probably check on it. After looking at the oven and sitting back down in the lounge I informed him that I hadn't even begun cooking and the burning smell was probably crap left from the pizza 3 days ago.

<Another few minutes pass>

Interrupting us from conversation, my oven fucking rudely (if you ask me) creates a loud bang, dims all the lights at it pisses around with my electrics and ejects plumes of black smoke from the oven door. I think it was probably a pissingly small amount of water leaked into the gap between the hobs and dripped onto/into the oven.

Fucksticks. One thing I hadn't budgeted for is replacing my white goods just 6 months into home ownership. Damn Bastard oven. It's going to be a bitching pain to replace as it's built in to a tiny gap in the fitted kitchen. Just what I really didn't fucking want right now.

Apparently research has shown that the 24th of january is the most depressing day of the year. Maybe it was nothing to do with the water and the oven couldn't take it anymore.
Ps: what kind of funding body payed for research into the most depressing day of the year?
