Narrow-minded. You'll be sorry when I cure the common cold with this stuff.

It's taking longer to set than I expected, though. Boo.

Half the bread is cut up. Progress!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Are microwaves so inherently variable that it's impractical for manufacturers to standardize power settings across models and brands? Or can they not be bothered?

I've cooked pasta and made an excellent mac and cheese in the microwave.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Hah! I totally watched that episode today I think. The dudes in Vancouver on Love it or list it too?

Yup!

I got over myself, which is good, and the apartment should be more or less ready to move into on Saturday.

My microwave rocks, whatever it does.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
