Exploding eggs?

What an interesting couple of days I've had. I can't believe that the Celtics almost lost yesterday after being 24 points up at one point. I was stressing out so much, but then they held strong and I was extremely happy. The C's are up 2-0 and just need 1 in LA to pretty much seal it. Still, I'm never going to count Kobi out of anything.

But today was where the real interesting things happened. Before I get into today's events I forgot to tell everyone about my housemate's brother coming to stay with us. The house I live in is actually owned by my housemate's brother who works as a professional dancer on a cruise ship. So he's in Perth for a couple of months every year. It's kinda strange living with your landlord for a couple of months, especially when he likes things as clean as he does and I'm not that stressed about how clean things are. Kate cleaned the place pretty good and I helped out here and there so Damo could come home to a clean house. Remember this for what I'm about to tell you next...

I have Aidan's camera cause he was taking some time off filming me (soft Aidan). I was going to get some numbers of my body fat % and blood pressure and stuff like that. You know to see how I'm progressing health wise. So I've woken up and done my morning things, then got ready to go to the gym. While getting ready I decided to boil some eggs for today and tomorrow. So I put the eggs on the stove, turn on the heat and get ready for the gym. At the gym I'm expecting to see Zinni there to do all the tests but he's not about. I workout for about 1.5 hours and still no Zinni. Not wanting to waste time waiting around for him and not getting any filming done I decide to head home. When I'm about half way home I remember... I remember that I put eggs onto boil and I didn't take them off the stove or even turn the heat down. There is eggs on the stove that have been boiling for 1.5 hours and my housemate's brother who is a clean freak is ment to be home at 12:30. I had got to the gym a little after 11, the time was after 12:30 and I was still 5 minutes from home. Time to stress out more than I was when the C's nearly gave up their 24 point lead.

Does anyone know the panic feeling you get when you've left something out that someone might find and you don't want them to find it? You know like a special b'day present for a loved one that you want to keep secret and you stupidly leave it on your bed after getting a call from your mates telling you to come hang out with them. That's how I was feeling except it wouldn't be hugs and kisses if I'd burnt the house down. When I got home I ran into the house, just because the 5 seconds I save by running vs walking is going to make all the difference after leaving eggs cooking for over 1.5 hours. I get inside and the house is filled with smoke and I can barely breathe in the kitchen. I look into the pot and the water is completely gone and there's not much else in the pot either. Now let me tell you what happens to eggs that are cooked for that long. What happen is they explode and they explode good. There was egg bits everywhere, there was egg bits and shells on the floor 3m from the stove, egg yolk on the ceiling and around the pot was just a mess. In the pot was about 4-5 sorry bits of charcoal that sorta looked like eggs (I had put 9 into boil). Realistically I was lucky that I didn't burn the house down and that Damo didn't get home before me. It is about 12 hours after the event the house still smells like burnt egg. :(

So there's the exploding egg story and how I'm lucky not to have burnt the house down on the day my landlord got into Perth after being on a plane for 14 hours. I bet you all thought I was going to talk about my flatulence after eating a bunch of eggs.

Here's hoping the C's win game 3! Oh, and that I get to dunk before I'm 30... but the C's come first right now.
