It had to happen. And you know what? I'm not even a little surprised.
Last night I walked over to the grocery to stock up on food that I can heat in the microwave. I bought enough to tide me over for a few days. Just a few minutes ago the generator that supplies the power for my microwave took a shit. Figures. The belt is shredded. No power, no heat, no nothing. So now I have a stock of food but no microwave in which to heat it.
I really can't afford it but if I am spending another night in this mud hole I am going to walk the mile to the closest bar and have a couple of beers. I'll worry about eating tomorrow.
