Interesting first day...

For those of you that didn't know, I have stopped working after some time and am now enjoying some time. Today, being the first day that I didn't get up and go into work. While weird to start off with, it was awesome. Don't get me wrong, I love working but it's also nice to have your own schedule and spend more time with my growing little girl.

Today was pretty uneventful up to the point where I was getting dinner ready. I took steaks out this morning to thaw so I could cook them tonight. A step up from the normal where I usually forget to take anything out. Anyhow, in preparation to cook them I went to go get the grill ready. Note: We have a gas grill. No biggie, turn the knob, listen for the clicking sound and wait for it to light. Hmmm sounds easy enough. So, I turn the knob, waiting for the clicking sound aaaannddd Nothing. Hmpf Turn the knob again, listen for the clicking sound... Nothing, yet this time I smell propane so I know it's working. Okay, well one more time then I am giving up. Turn the knob WHHHFFFTTTTTT with a bright flash and burnt hair. I imagine I am feeling light Michael Jackson during his taping on his Pepsi commercial, although I am sure he was compensated in some capacity and had some burns. Me? No burns, just shorter hair on one side of my head and a bruised ego. Oh what will Tuesday bring?
