Wow. I was right.

I had to log in a second time today because this was too good to wait until tomorrow.

Before you read this, you have to read my previous post from earlier today though.

When the whole toaster thing happened earlier, I asked hubby if he thought perhaps the problem was the breaker, since most toasters don't click down if they're not plugged in. He told me no, and to prove his point, he plugged something in the other kitchen outlet. When I asked whether he was sure all kitchen outlets were on the same breaker I got an exasperated response I can't repeat unless I put money in my jar.

Well, tonight, I let him take the newest toaster out of the box, and he tried it out. And wouldn't you know, he couldn't put his bagel down. So I started laughing... and laughing. He went down to the basement, and sure enough - it was a breaker that flipped this morning. We wrecked a perfectly good toaster because of a flipped breaker.

Or rather... he did.

And you know what? He actually came upstairs and - ruefully, mind you - said (and I quote): "You were right."

In three years of marriage and eight years together, I don't think I'd heard that yet. Man, that was well worth the $20 for this latest toaster!
