Interesting turn of events

March is going to be a weird month.

 I have a potential date with someone I last saw 10 years ago on Friday.  My friend has her beau from  Florida visiting starting tomorrow morning. Of course now she's apprehensive. But I remember how I felt the first time I travelled to Dubai.  The apprehension will pass.

Also went to Fabricville at lunch and found some lovely cotton jersey knits, buy 1 get 2 free, so you get 3 meter for the price of 1.  I got 5.3 meters for $30 with taxes.  Will be able to make 2 dresses and a Tshirt and possibly a tank top. :) Don't get how I did not spot it on Saturday when I spent 2 hours wandering around the store.

What is it about March?

It was March 17th last year when my gf's husband burned their house down with a kitchen grease fire, he was making french fries.  Well she got a George Forman Fryer, just like I did, thinking it would be safe, and prevent fires.Well tonight without warning, the element just shorted out and burned through the plastic and caught on fire.  Thankfully, it was caught on time and major disaster was avoided.

It wasn't her day for small appliances. Her electric kettle also decided it would be a good idea not to auto-shut off until it was devoid of water. Thankfully, that didn't cause a fire either.

About disasters, my prayers goes out to the Japanese people affected by the nasty earthquake.
