Okay, well that was fun

And I'm not talking about the forty-minute meeting on how to use Sharepoint.

My office spaceheater, the thing that contributes to my health and well-being during the colder months of the year, just caught on fire.

It was only a small conflagration, but enough scare the shit out of me. Nothing else burned and the damn thing's already in the Dumpster.

It smells like burning chemicals and it's cold in here already.

Oh, pooh.

You're safe and no lasting damage done (well, only to the heater) and that's the main thing, though having nothing to fend off the cold with is unpleasant.

The office is a surprisingly dangerous environment. I had a photocopier blow up on me many years ago. *toxic toner mushroom cloud* :-/ Give me quick flash fire any day.

Ugh - I have never had a toner cartridge blow up on me, though I once got a brand new silk blouse caught in the mechanics of a copier. Did you know that hairspray removes toner stains like magic!
