Smoke In The Livingroom Makes Me Cheerful?

mood: cheerful [?! lol]
listening to: none

I was cooking a hotdog this morning. Yes, a hotdog. There's onlyone left. Can't believe it? Can't believe why on earth would someone leave a hotdog and not just cook it with the rest of the batch? Well, it amazes me too.

So anyway, I thought I set the stove on minimum fire [is that how it's called?]. I went upstairs to log on the internet and check some stuff; the usual routine.

In a few minutes I started to smell smoke in my room. I freaked out when I saw the smoke actually crawling from the staircase.



I quickly went down to the kitchen and found myself squinting through the smoke that enveloped the entire room.

I saw the pan. It looked like there was tornado or a cyclone or something... of smoke.

"Toto, I don't think we're in Kansas anymore."

I swear, it looked facinating.

The hotdog wasn't even visible at that moment though so I hurriedly turned off the stove and tried to shoo away the smoke with pot holders. Yeah, not really effective. I went to the livingroom and turned on the electric fan, hoping that my neighbors won't think my place is really burning.

"No, I'm fine. The hotdog's not though."

That would be embarassing.

Nah, they won't think that... the smoke smelled like grilled food, so...

So when I got bored trying to shoo away the smoke and ventilate the room, I decided to call Ate Val about the quiz this afternoon. When I was talking with her, she remarked, "Hey your voice sound cheerful today!"

Translation: "What's up? Any good stories you'd like to share with me?"

So I told her what happened earlier with the hotdog.

"Only one side was burnt? Was it black?" she managed to ask while laughing so hard.

"Yeah, it's like Two-Face!"



So... can someone tell me if there's like some chemical reaction to the human body when we smell smoke? It doesn't make anyone high though, right?

Nah, I'm just kidding.

My throat is starting to hurt now though.

I want to stop wondering "what-ifs".
I need to know "what is".
