Greasy, food-laden fingerprints on every key, the handle, and the push button opener. (The inside is actually clean because I freak if they don't use the splatter cover. Mind you, no one ever actually puts the splatter cover back in the microwave; they leave it on top of the stovetop where it leaves a condensation ring.)

Have I ever mentioned that I lived alone for more than seven years before I got married? It wasn't half bad.

In the Netherlands, most people don't have ovens. They have these microwave things with an oven setting. I was at my in-laws' house and turned on the "oven" and forgot to take the splatter cover out first...after a few minutes I started smelling melted plastic.:oops::banghead: I was able to rescue it BEFORE it got all over the inside of the microwave at least. And of course I replaced the splatter cover.

Bet you wish you were me.

I went to California, ate like a pig the whole time, got home and saw that I lost 4 pounds when I'm already a little too skinny.

Well you were in Disney property. It's been reported that certain people lose 10-20 pounds just by stepping on Disney property.

When I first bought my house it had a combintation microwave/convection oven. Suffice it to say, I broke the plate and was unable to eat the reheated hamburger for fear of glass in my food.

Not contradicting you, because like I said.. I never heard of them, but, just out of curiosity, how do you know that. Do you know them personally or is everyone going strictly by their collective PR teams and what they want you to believe? I have never followed any celebrities in my life. The closest I ever came was a mild desire to stalk Sandra Bullock back when she made frequent visits to Vermont. Shear fantasy though, but I digress, it's just always been a puzzle to me why people seem to be so curious about celebs.

When you're the leader, you don't have to follow.

People are intrigued (yes, some are obsessed) by celebrities, actors, musicians, and the Royals ... always have been. They live lives we can only dream about. They have beauty, untold wealth, fabulous cars, and sprawling mansions.

Today's celebrity obsession isn't new. It didn't start with Marilyn Monroe or the Beatles. Today's instant media has just made everything so much more accessible. It makes us feel that we "know" these people, when clearly we do not.

By all accounts, it looked like StarLord and his adorable little blonde wife were happy. They posted adorable things about and to each other on Twitter and Instagram. They were photographed hand in hand doing regular every day things with their son. Not every picture was posed to the nines. They didn't look to be living the glamour life, so it "appeared" that they were a regular, down to earth, happy couple. People were rooting for them. (Now the obsession with the Kardashians I cannot even begin to fathom.)

Good call on Sandra Bullock BTW; she is lovely. But again, I don't know her personally. She could be a shrill harpie ... but I doubt it. She "seems" nice; much like Pratt and Faris "seemed" happy.

The Kardashians I assume are kind of like a train wreck. No one WANTS to see, but you can't help but look as you go by.

As for Sandra Bullock, she's actually really sweet, I guess. When she was married to Jesse James, they somehow landed in Gillette Wyoming. (I grew up in a little town about 40 miles South of Gillette) I don't remember if they were filming something or on vacation or what. I thought maybe it had to do with motorcycles. Maybe passing through on their way to Sturgis Rally? But my friend met her at a park and said she was very nice to all the people there and very gracious about photos, and respectful in asking for some privacy for her family. I didn't meet her myself, but my friend did.
