Toaster Fun

I have to tell about this really random night of fun I had. Well, I was out of food and I needed to go to the store. I had just got out of my practice room and, naturally, it was already dark and so I didn't quite feel like going by myself. So, I walked home just at the other end of campus and started to call everyone (almost) I knew with a car. There was this one guy that I was apprehensive to call. Not that he was a bad person or anything, but because I didn't quite know him all that well. But all my other options were slowly dwindling. So I finally got up the courage. He said he'd be over in a few minutes. I apologized for the inconvenience, if it was at all inconvenient. He assured me it wasn't and we were soon on our way. We went to the store and all things were going well. He even showed me somethings. Then on our way out, we spotted peeps that were selling for really cheep. Must have been in honor of ushering in the Easter Season. He decided he wanted to get some and then we could et them together. Well, we came home and we decided to try to blow them up in the microwave. He was of the opinion that we could try them on different settings, but I thought it really wouldn't make a difference, but I decided to let him have his fun. I saw a girl that lives across the way who sometimes needs some cheering up and asked her if she wanted to join us. She came in, and I think she enjoyed herself. It is hard to tell with her, because she is a shy girl with a low self-esteem. I think she did because what happened next was just silly. He asked for a string. I just knew what was coming, but granted him the string anyway...He tied the string around the peep like a noose and draping the string over a pencil roasted it over the toaster. Not the smartest thing, right? But this I allowed. When the peep swelled and looked like it was about to drop in the toaster if we let it go much longer. So, I said something and he began to take it away from the heat source, but then in doing so, the string cut though the peep and it fell in. Sighing and laughing we quickly unplugged the toaster and tried to scrape out what we could with a fork. It was a mess! But at the same time funny...Then we decided to smoke off the rest of the peep residue. We took the toaster outside and plugged it into the wall. We let it go for a while until we noticed flames! He took it out of the wall, while huffing and puffing. Let me tell ya - it was a sight to behold. And basically that was it. We went back inside and enjoyed more food, and the girl went home. I think she enjoyed the entertainment.
