Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.

Steamy pile of mess
Today, I put leftovers in the microwave and pressed what I thought was “1:00.” It was actually “10:00.” I got distracted, then realized at minute eight when the smell changed from “warm food” to “bad science experiment.” FML

Today, while I was in the shower, my 4 year-old son wondered what would happen if he put 6 eggs in the microwave. FML

Today, I left my daughter with a babysitter for the first time. When I came home, my microwave was ruined because they had attempted to heat cans of Play-Doh as a science experiment. FML

Today, I wasn't feeling well, so I took my temperature with a thermometer from my sister's bathroom. I later found out that I actually used my sister's rectal thermometer. At least I don't have a fever. FML

Today, the family computer kept overheating. My four-year-old son thought the solution was to pour a nice, cold cup of water on it. FML

Today, I wasn't feeling too good, and took my temperature. I had a fever, which I told my boyfriend who was laughing hysterically when I told him. I asked him what was so funny, turns out he's been using the thermometer to take our dog's temperature sometimes. Rectally, of course. FML

I'd say it's a good scientific curiosity your child has.

Children that are curious and test their theories like that tend to grow up to be very intelligent! You should appreciate your son's curiosity! :)

That's likely BECAUSE it's a repeat, whether it was intentional or not.

I hope it wasn't one of those thermometers that have mercury in them. Nonetheless, I like that your child has a curiousity of science!

I can really imagine that, sounds like something I would have done. Curiosity is good in children, as long as they don't hurt themselves of course =P
