So that just happened

[cleolinda]

Aaaaand our fridge just exploded in a cascade of half-melted ice. I don't know what happened. I opened the freezer door to get the ice cream and a waterfall fell out, that's all I know.

I have to say, I really admire 2008's dedication to sucking, all the way up to the very last second.


ETA:



There. I feel better now.

"Of COURSE that just happened...whatever..."

Yeah, that's pretty much where we are right now.

I honestly cannot understand how so much could go badly for your family this year.

Well, I keep reminding myself that it's just appliances. And there's been a number of chronic health problems (my grandmother falls a lot, my mother's arthritis, etc.), but no one's suffering from cancer, you know? The suckiness has been persistent, but it hasn't been dire. We have a lot to be thankful for, all told.

That is true...we've had more health issues this year in my family, including a brain tumor and breast cancer, so I'd say appliance failures would be the way to go between the two. Either way though, you're past due for a break. Maybe it's a good sign that as the year is ending, the appliances are getting smaller? A hair dryer is at least more feasibly replaceable. I'll be sending good thoughts your way regarding 2009.
