Mini Microwave

Momoko said she needed a microwave in her classroom. Previously they had been banned from school because they take up too much power costs. But it seems some teachers are going back to having them in their rooms. Momoko decided to join them. She enlisted me to buy one for her, and deliver it after hours when not many people were around.

I had initially planned to buy one after work. But things were hectic at work. So instead I snuck out at lunch to pick one up from Walmart. They had a really small floor model. I bought one that was a little bigger. I thought I would need the truck, but I fit it in my car.

After work I drove straight to Momoko's school. I pulled out my dolly. Then I wrapped the microwave box in a big blanket and tied it down. I rolled the thing into Momoko's classroom. She had a nice spot that was a good fit behind her desk. We gave it a test, and it heated up the rotating plate. All systems go. Little Kat hid the thing with cardboard before we left the school.

Getting a Little Warmer

Kit Kat was happy during the power outage that the fish were still alive. That was the least of our worries. We had to stay alive. Little Kat had it right. We were in caveman times here.

Little Kat looked for food in the pantry. He found some queso which was eaten up quickly. Kit Kat lit a cinnamon candle. Then Momoko made her light a huge pine candle too.

At first we tried to make some instant soup with hot water from the tap. Later we attempted to use candlelight to heat water for soup. It was a fail.

Little Kat's scout leader had us buy a flashlight you mount on your head. I thought it was a little cheesy. But it came in handy when the house was dark. The kids learned how to light a Bic lighter during the outage.

At midnight after 12 hours of power outage, the power came back on. I saw a blinking clock. The heat started up. I heated up some White Castle cheeseburgers in the Microwave. Momoko and I played Mario on the Wii.

Need to Eat

I was getting ready to come home from work today. So I called up Kitty Kat. She said we were out of food at home. Yikes. That's no fun. Luckily Kitty assembled all her kat power, and went out to hunt. That's more like it.

On the way home from work, I passed by Kitty in action. Looks like she was hunting for some big game. I felt happy, knowing my dinner was to be served soon.

A little while later, Kitty came back with some eats in her mouth. Delicious. I can't write any more. My chow awaits.
