I almost burned my parents' house down last week. I turned the wrong burner on and caught the leftover bacon grease on fire. Of course I had no clue what to do so I started screaming for my dad to come and we took the pan outside while it was blazing.
My mom was like... "you idiots!" Put the lid on the pan! The kitchen was full of smoke and the house smelled horrible for a good day but we were all fine. What a mess.

In a similar vein, a few years ago when we were living with my dad I was cooking when the power went off. I had something on the burner of an electric top stove and stupidly I didn't shut the damn burner off. When we went to bed the power was still off. We woke up a few hours later to the fire alarm going off. The burner had obviously turned back on but my sister had put a pizza box on the stove and it caught on fire. WHOOPS.
Recently, I put DS in front of his favorite show and went into the office to do a video interview. I figured it was first thing in the morning and he'd be amused for 30 minutes. Well he wasn't because he began banging on the door yelling "MAMA!" toward the end of the interview. Luckily the question they just asked was about my current role/job so I laughed and said "As you can probably hear I am currently staying at home with my two year old!"

I was walking down the street pushing the kids in our double stroller and a guy sitting on a stoop said, "Beautiful, baby!" I held my head a little higher and congratulated myself on still having "it" even just three months post-partum.
Several blocks later I realized he probably said, "Beautiful baby," no comma, referring to my actual baby. Whomp whomp.
