Domestic appliances hate me.

The light bulb of my bed side lamp decided to explode on me today. The explosion was close enough to my face that my ears are still ringing, and I had to remove little light bulb shards from my right eyebrow. Thank the gods for my glasses because it could have potentially being ugly. Spent the past 30 minutes or so vacuuming the carpet, airing my bed sheets and attempting to remove all light bulb shards.

So, that’s one exploding light bulb, setting the stove on fire twice, an exploding bottle of tomato paste and an exploding/smoking TV. See, domestic appliances hate me.

Re: oh shi

Yep, eyebrow. It is actually quite strange because I'm not hurt or anything just had bits of shards on my eyebrow.

Interesting experience, don't want to repeat it again.

Stay away from Pyrex, next! (Someone else on my f-list recently had one explode on her. Fortunately, no injuries.) Thank goodness for glasses! I'm glad you're not seriously harmed!

No harm done. Just kind of stunned and freaked out, and um, refusing to have another bedside lamp (such a wuss). But yes, thank god for the glasses!

I think I'd be a bit leery of bedside lamps myself! (Well, I might look into white LED-based bulbs at some point. But nooooooooo regular things! Eeeeeg!)

White LED-based bulbs? This requires wiki.

Actually the more I think about it the less I want to have a lser surgery. Though I may invest in some contacts just so I can exercise without my glasses fogging up.
