The roof, the roof, the roof is on fire

I have a secret to tell...

(Looking around to make sure my neighbors don't hear my typing and figure out what I'm about to say)

I almost burned down my apartment today. The key word there is ALMOST. I came home today (9:00 PMish) and found my Saint candle burning. Kind of obvious with all the lights out in my place. There was this big glow from the candle. I thought I put it out last night, but low and behold there it was burning. Maybe it's holy and it lit itself.

Doubtful... I think I left it burning all last night and throughout the day. Well, my wax evaporation problem seems to have cleared itself. This reminded me that I need to get renter's insurance. I can't be the only one that has almost burned down this fourplex.

Jeezus! You have some luck there boy. If that had been me, I would have arrived home to a pile of ashes.

No joke. But check out today's post for more thoughts on that.
