Hey at least that was contained to that tray.

I cracked my egg into the sink, and put the shell into the bowl

At least it's in the tray, could be worse!

Been there, mate. I also would like to know how coffee gets onto the counter when pouring slowly from a carafe into a cup. Even more mysteriously, how is it that on rare occasions I come down to coffee between the carafe and burner without any apparent overflow or crack in the carafe? Coffee doesn't obey the laws of physics.

I also have to be on a call with my boss and his boss in 45 minutes, and I have to take my daughter to school first and she is dragging ass getting out of bed. I might wind up having to pull over and take this meeting in my car.

Don’t feel bad. I did this once with a half carafe of coffee. Forgot to put the stupid carafe underneath before hitting the button and walking away. Suddenly my wife goes “wow, it really smells like coffee in here,” as I walk out to find it all over the counter and floor.

I woke up with my cats next to me, made an omelette, and just finished my coffee while listening to the CBC radio.

Today is shaping up to be a nice day.

What's the big deal there's a tray there indicating this is common enough a situation

Yeah. The tray underneath is really just to catch water spills, but it definitely came in handy today.

I've done it often with the machine at work, but I'm always nearby, so I catch it before it overflows the drip tray.

You could have forgotten to put the filter back in your Bialetti Moka pot.

I'm guessing, no cup was in place? I've had this be a hose failure and leaked through the machine. So. Much. Fun.

I was strolling near my house and someone was having anxiety on the sidewalk because it was exams day for her and she tripped on the sidewalk and her glasses fell into the storm drain. I dedicated almost half an hour to helping to get the glasses out. Then, after walking with her to ease the feeling a little, she was pressed on why she was late by the teachers, and she had to use me as a reason for it because (due to testing/teaching policy) they wouldn't have accommodated to her unless it seemed blatant it wasn't her fault. So I didn't exactly start in a good place even though I wouldn't have changed what I did.

Yep. Started the machine and carried my breakfast out to my desk. Had to go back for something and thought, "something sounds wrong", but it was almost finished.

Been there, done that.

Glad to hear it.

I had a solid block of meetings this morning, but they're over now. I made myself grilled cheese with tomato for lunch, so it's turning out better than it started.
