looks can be deceiving

This is really dumb but kinda funny. So, last summer we had this lovely new microwave installed onto our wall.



Before this, I still had the cheap one Kimberly bought me when I moved away after High School. By the way, it still worked! So this one has began freaking out. When you punch in the time, it goes really fast and it doesn't heat. Problem for a microwave, right? Well, Jory and I thought, "No big deal, we can go without a microwave for awhile." Well, Duh! Have you ever realized how much you depend on the old microwave? Seriously, we are starving!

We called the repair man, and he is supposedly ordering the part. It has been a month! So I told Jory that I would bring the one in from my classroom. It is another cheap one that I stole from Brock. Well, I guess I wasn't fast enough because this is what I came home to:



Seriously, this thing weighs as much as me. Well, maybe not that much but at least 100 for sure! It is huge and DISGUSTING! It is the one out of the work trailer. It travels with them job site to job site. Who knows what has been in there! By the way, I opened it and blue prints were cooking! Jory hauled it in the back of the truck and hay is all over it. Actually there was a trail from the truck to where he delievered it.

Anyways, this is my conversation with redneck Jory:
me- "Uh, What the heck is this? I don't even think so."
J- "What do you mean, we need a microwave don't we?"
me- "Not that bad, this thing is sickning!"
J- "Clean it!"
me- "I'm not touching that, get it out of here so WE can fit in the house! I will bring the one from school tommorrow!"





Jory thought that it was so funny that I was so disgusted. He laughed it up. Needless to say, I brought the one from school home. When I got there he had not yet disposed of the sick one. Dad came over and we told him the story. That got him and J going on what a good microwave it has been for them. It must be good, it still works. It looks like the first micro. ever invented! It took both of them to put it in the back of Jory's truck. Sick.

You can't tell how sick it really is in the photos. I'm not too good, believe me!

Okay so I laughed so hard at this that I seriously had tears rolling down my cheeks!! Then Alan had to come see what I was laughing so hard at, which made me laugh even harder AGAIN!! Too funny! Our husbands are so much alike it's scary! The only exception is Jory's rodeo obsession is Alan's hunting obsession. Al looks at the pictures and says, "Hey I remember those cool bacon trays!" Ugh! I feel your pain, but am laughing at you so hard right now!! Thanks I needed a good laugh today!! I can always count on you! Love your guts! XOXO
