To put out a fire...turn out the lights.

Well this is my first post...but this will be about something that happened yesterday.

Me and my fiancee were heating up some left-overs last night in the microwave, some corned beef and cabbage. We also had a leftover burrito we wanted to heat up...it was in one of those styrofoam take out boxes.

My fiancee placed the box inside the microwave, while I was washing some dishes. The microwave began to make noises, as sparks came flying out of the box. Apprently we forgot the burrito was wrapped in foil. Anyway...i yell over to her and the box caught on fire.

I turned off the microwave. We stood there a couple of seconds...watching the fire. Then I said to her...thinking to myself...we should close the doors so the entire house doesn't smell like smoke..."close the door."

Apparently I did not make myself clear and she went and turned off the kitchen lights.

There we stood. Watching the fire. In the dark.
