Salt Water + Electric Current = Trevor is Stupid

So, you guys remember in the movie "So I Married an Axe Murderer" the scene where Mike Myers et co. are hanging out at a diner talking about terrible situations (re: bran muffins and coffee then getting stuck on the Golden Gate Bridge in traffic)?

No? Maybe you haven't seen the movie enough.

Anyway, they all come up with elaborate stories... until Tony's GF (portrayed by Debi Mazar) simply states, "How about, being electrocuted." She draws blank stares and the conversation quickly ends...

Turns out, she was right... being electrocuted sucks.

Last night, after a harrowing experience of cleaning the fish tank, replacing the filter, and buying a new pump (which was a crazy experience that required 2 trips to 2 hardware stores to modify the pump to ensure proper flow).... where was I?

Oh yeah, I electrocuted myself because of my wet hand grazing the power strip socket as I was turning the lights/pump back on. It hurt a great deal, and was very scary. Kyre and Jen were witnesses to me screaming... and I'm proud to say it wasn't a girly scream at all. Yay me!
