We will not discuss the gasp of horror when our appliances went on the fritz right before my normally quiet and reserved wife (who is a closet-case nosy neighbor) was settling in to read everyone's business. She actually screamed.
In retrospect it's probably a good thing our poker night was canceled. I can't imagine our friends would be thrilled with the suddenly possessed electronics freaking out on top of everything else they seem to have a problem with around here. Especially considering poker night usually collapses into a frenzy of drunken rock band (for the record: never let Lena be the drummer for The Offspring when she's had more than one glass of Syrah).
I've decided to look on the bright side and take Lena out on Saturday night; if anyone has any ideas we'd be down to visit a new place. And yes, China is already on the list. We visited yesterday, had a lovely time. I feel like I should thank one or some of you for getting me laid on a work night.
