So, at around 12:30am or so, I'm sitting at my computer and playing WoW, when from the left, where our AC and water heater is kept, I hear a loud grinding and a sharp CLANK. The things behind that door make noise all the time, and so though it surprised me, I got over it and ignored it. Then I smelled and saw the smoke. I thought it may have been myself, but upon having someone else in the room come over and smell, we surmised that yes; something was burning.
Pulling the Recliner and the tables and the vacuum and the printer box away from the door, we open it to a large cloud of dark gray smoke and bright yellow sparks. Those sparks turn into flames with the new oxygen from the opening door. We throw water on it and call maintenance. Much worry and three or four or five calls later, the guy shows up and turns the breaker for the thing off and disconnects it from any power in the house.
We still dont know what caused it yet, as its still kinda hot, charred, and black in there. He's coming back in the morning to go deeper into the machine to see if he can a) figure out what did it so we can not do it no more and b)fix the dern thing.
I'll update as soon as I know more...
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So they came in and replaced the hot water heater. We have hot water again, but they never really did say for sure what the problem was or what caused it. Machinery malfunction with 'we think it might have been a malfunctioning thermostat on the inside'. Whatever. We have a brand new one and *knock on wood* I hope to whoever that nothing happens to this one.

100 Picture Challenge
Sorry I've been absent so long in the way of the doodles, but I've been a bit depressed with random things about my life, so I'm laying down some rules to make it right.
The rules
1. Make 100 pics each pic having a theme listed below. Each pic should have ONE and only ONE theme to it, for it to count.
2. No time limit so have fun
3. The main picture should be drawn but not limited to. for all fair purposes, people are allowed to use their paint programs and photoshop to create the pic.
3.a) pics should be of own artistic ability. You may not edit photos, or break any other rules set out in the Da etiquette policy. Your pics can be anythi
Quackers
Myself and more than a couple of others are convinced that the female doctor who saw me this past Saturday at Winchester's immediate care center is quackers. After describing my symptoms to her, she comes up with tendinitis and gives me a prescription for prednezone, a steroid type drug. However, after talking with Brad, my dad, and a few women at work (one who's had surgery for tendinitis), they vehemently disagree and have told me that the pain I'm having sounds more like arthritis than it does tendinitis, especially given that the pain is all over, and not just in my elbows. So yea, I'm convinced that I need to go to my normal family docto
Whats with...
the weird dreams again?
This one is one that I've had a few times, but never really looked into much. But they keep happening. Would love some insight on this if anyone actually knows what they're talking about.
I'm at the doctor's office going in for what I guess I believe is a routine yearly physical. They bring out the things that they use to take ultrasounds of your body, and I think 'hey, was there actually something wrong with my gallbladder all those months ago?' Nope, they take the ultrasounds and tell me that I'm pregnant. But with quints. Anyone know what quints are? Thats 5 babies in your you. I couldnt believe what they'd told m
L:OOOOOOVE
Woo! So, I still dont have the $150 back on my bank account from HP, so instead I took out a Best Buy credit card and went to one of my best friend's place of employment, Best Buy of course, and she and one of the awesome guys she knows there hooked me up with a computer and monitor with better specs than the one from HP at a CHEAPER price. So I have them both, plus a surge protector, which equals some amount of happy for me. I wont be awesome until I get my money back, but I'm full of happy for the PC that I've got now.
