Chain Reaction

A weird chain of events occured tonight at dinner. First, I had some friends over for dinner. Since everyone has kids, I usually eat dinner at other people's houses, but I invited the whole family over (disasterous for those of us that have cream seat cushions). Everything was going smoothly until my friend dropped a bit of hashbrown casserole onto the floor. I called Pepsi over to eat it, but realized that it was hot from the oven so I bent over to blow on it for her. At that point, my friend dropped the spoon on my head. Fortunately, the handle hit me in the head. Unfortunately, all the contents of the spoon flew out and got all over Pepsi. And the really sad part was that she could reach any of it without just smearing it around. I ended up having to give her a bath--potatoes are hard to get out of dog hair...
