FML

I'll start off this blog just letting everyone know that I am very clumsy, easily panicked and I rarely think thing through (especially when it comes to the consequences of my actions).

On Monday night we held a party for one of the women I used to work with at the supermarket. Nifty Fifty, oh it will be fun! I was trying to help out as much as I could, getting people drinks, making jello shooters and taking plates of food back and forth. I was having a great time... until... the cake + huge industrial sparklers = a smoke alarm going off down the hallway in the restaurant kitchen.

As it was, we were all in a little bit of a panic about how to turn it off and what was going to happen. I, using my cunning skills and amazing aptitude for dealing with pressure (close to none) follow the sound of the alarm, got to the kitchen and pulled the fire switch.

Moments later, after running back down the hall, find a very large amount of liquids coming out of the sprinkler system all over the hot plate,ovens, deep fryer and grills. It takes me a moment to piece it all together, that YES I DID DO THIS. We all had a giggle about it, and after mopping a little resumed the party.

To my astonishment, yesterday I am found in bed writing previous blog and am told its going to cost me 700 CA dollars and at least 8 hours of my time to fix this panicked accident. Turns out that wasn't just water, it was a harsh corrosive fire fighting liquid that if not washed off EVERY surface of the kitchen it will rust everything. Plus the liquid is 200 CA a litre...

I now have chemically burnt hands, and have to go back again right now to finish up the floor and a few more dishes.

Joy is me... no more MAC any time soon unfortunately.
