We’ve all daydreamed about having a superpower like superheroes, haven’t we? I mean Superman can fly, reverse time (at least, in the name of love) and is uber strong. Spiderman, well, he uses web power to fly around and catch bad guys. There are other interesting superpowers like invisibility, walking through walls, shape shifting, or reading of the mind. That last one doesn’t interest me much ever since I watched an old episode of the Twilight Zone where the character could suddenly hear everyone’s thoughts and there was no filter so it became overwhelming and noisy in his head. Um, no thanks. At certain times though, I’ve wished for the ability. Could’ve saved a lot of problems, you know? Or be a fly on the wall… * According to this list, there’s insanely rich. I never really thought of that as a superpower per se but it is one I would love to have. That superpower should just be a given. With super wealth I could share it and help so many people, go to so many causes...
Yesterday, I asked Sam to take the microwave out of the kitchen. His jaw dropped. Of course, he had to remind me what I told him last year that I would NEVER get rid of it. ha ha! Times have certainly changed. But since he's not ever going to use it and I rarely use it and won't be using it for the next 96 days I figure move it out and free up some space. Maybe we'll keep it in storage for a bit or just give it away. Haven't decided on that yet but for now, my kitchen is microwave-free.

that feature has been part of my life for at least 30 years. I cannot imagine life without it. . .

OH wait, and to melt cheese. I almost forgot about that very important use for a microwave!
I was so happy to get rid of it and I can say I haven't missed it one bit.

PS. I think SAM should win the mustache contest too!
oh and THANKS for reminding me. I got this comment and i'm currently drinking a green smoothie... and i was almost finished when you reminded me. I have to go to work and then climb/train but i'll post it before midnight for sure. It kind of shows the funny side of me...
Also I think I should start copying badash's work out routine. She makes me feel like a lazy bum! ;)
See you thursday!
Now I find other ways to make things quick and easy!
Way to go!!!

Looks like she's going to do another one focused on making natural beauty products too.
after much tedious begging and conversations about this at my home too, we finally gave that evil nuke box away! good riddance to bad heating. when m'lady moved in, she was convinced she NEEDED it. what a bogus lie. it got used like 4 times a month, and now that i'm raw-ing it up [i do the food prep around here,] there's no noodles or heatables to warm in the microwave. not that the stove is gone, but i like to think about it as a glorified counter top.
hooray for you and sam!
anyways
thanks for hte comment.
I had no idea which one to enter, but hopefully they like the one i did enter...
that book (rawvolution) is one i've been saving up for!!!
good for you!

One morning Peter was nuking something, we smelled smoke, looked all over the kitchen and couldn't find the source. Then I opened the microwave and white smoke whirled out. We immediately unplugged it and quickly removed it from the house.
My mother threatened to replace it but I talked her out of it. They have both adjusted and life in the kitchen runs perfectly fine without it.
