The New Adventures of Caitlin and Christine

Tonight was an interesting night. Here's a little rundown.

Christine bakes pumpkin bread.

Caitlin is studying Pharmacology and gets bored. She decides it would be a good idea to fill the bathtub with water and attempt to float the rabbit in it on a cookie sheet. She begins to fill the tub with water.

The carbon monoxide detector goes off. Caitlin stands on chair and waves a cookie sheet at it. Christine calls resourceful boyfriend/house husband and opens windows and doors. Carbon monoxide detector continues to go off.

Christine calls Emergency Maintenance. No answer.

Christine calls the Fire Department. No answer.

Freak out and call house husband.

Christine calls 911.

911 operator tells us to go outside. Christine and Caitlin layer up and go outside, taking out the trash on their way. May as well kill two birds with one stone.

Christine and Caitlin freeze their butts off.

Christine realizes that bunny is still loose inside. Christine and Caitlin perform emergency rescue operation, with Caitlin holding her nose. Christine holds rabbit in her coat to keep her warm.

Maintenance calls back and is annoyed.

The fire truck arrives.

Maintenance arrives.

Maintenance informs us the detector is bad. The fire department leaves. Maintenance takes detector and leaves.

Christine and Caitlin come back inside.

Caitlin irons place mats in her zebra print pajama pants.

Maintenance man returns and installs a new carbon monoxide detector.

Christine feeds maintenance man pumpkin bread and he leaves.

Christine and Caitlin lament that none of them were even remotely hot.

Wow. I miss living with you. :) Why did you want to float poor bunny? That seems sad. What's bunny's name? And that's too bad no hot men came. Boo. And again: I miss living with you... heck, I miss you in general. I want my Caitlin!
