Age 20I was making this
Hot Chocolate / Cappuccino Type Drink
In the microwave.
The Microwave beeped.
I opened the door.
It didn't look that hot...
I took a big mouth full. My face turned beet red.
I spit it out all over the floor & myself
My tongue was on fire.
Scalded.
I spent the rest of the night sitting on the couch
with a ziplock bag filled with ice on my tongue
I thought I would never be able
to taste anything again.
I think I cried.
I eventually recovered.
Ever since that day - I fear hot beverages
I'll drink hot tea if I'm sick
- after it's been sitting for a while of course -
a "warm" coffee once in a great while...
I'm not a fan of scalding liquid... no thanks.
God, that SUCKED

ReplyDeleteI read your posts all the time
I bet you'd have some good material.
I had an accident like that once, and I still haven't really recovered. I'm lucky to be alive.
