Toasters!!! Run for your looiivvves!!

I'm sure my hapless colleague will post something more amusing about this... was probably funnier from his perspective but I was attacked by a toaster yesterday.

There I am happily toasting (well.. burning) some apple and cinnamon pop tarts (they're awful).. our toaster in the apartment is like everything else here.. it works in theory but unless constantly supervised gets it completely wrong. So.. there I am standing looking down at the toaster, trying to identify signs of scorching.. when it pops. I leap up in surprise, braining myself on the kitchen cabinets suspended above it.

It hurt.

A lot.
