Microwave Chicken

So, I don't have propane yet for my stove - ergo, I have to cook my chicken in the microwave.  I've never done this before, but I've looked around online and got a few ideas - I just hope something works, I don't want to waste this chicken...

It was warmer today than usual - 50 degrees.  And luckily the wind wasn't blasting down from the mountains and freezing us out with the wind chill...  we did have wind, but it was a warm wind.  I think it's what they call a "chinook" - that spring wind?  The one that lets you know that warm weather is on its way.  Tomorrow is our last day of snow, at least I think so - we'll have to wait and see.  Good thing the Spring Fling Craft Fair is indoors, lol.

Still Shaking

Just found out that there's at least ONE way I do NOT like to be woken up...  and that's by a crashing sound of any kind!  I love my cats, I swear I do - but this morning I was ready to kill them both - if I could have found them right away.  I'm sure the sound scared them too, and they were hiding.  What caused the sound?  Well, I'll SHOW you:

Yep, the little shits knocked my large TV off the shelf...  thank goodness this TV is resilient - it's been through a LOT and it STILL works!  Not that I can watch it yet - but I check and there were no breaks or cracks, and when I plug it in I still get what I got before they knocked it down...  lucky for them!

So yeah, not a good way to wake up in the morning.  Honestly, at first I thought it was someone breaking down my front door - so I guess I was a little relieved when I saw the television.

Two things to mention - one, the color is still on my computer - guess it's fixed for good...  and two, my phone is still working - which is a shock, but I'm glad about that too...

Oh, and it snowed at least 2 inches last night...  :-)

Phone - Computer - Etc...

So, early last evening my color popped back onto my computer, and so far has stayed.  I don't want to get too excited though because it does have a habit of coming and going.  I've done everything I can to make sure it stays, but...  I think I'll talk to my friend Cindy tomorrow and see if she'll just give me the other computer, not just the monitor.

My phone is still working - however, I think it's scheduled for shut-off at midnight tonight.  I don't know WHY that money hasn't gone through.  It's not on the card, and according to the gift card website, it was charged for Alltel - it just hasn't posted yet.  I wonder why it's taking so damn long.  Like I said before though, I will NEVER buy another VISA gift card - I've never had such a headache about a bill in my effing life!

Looks like we're going to have some sun for awhile today - which is nice.  I don't mind the snow, don't get me wrong, but people need a little sunshine too - we're like flowers that way.  :-)
