I was visiting at a buddies house and his wife was making a early dinner for us. Tipping a delicious highball and chatting about the weather but our peace was wrecked by the panicked screech from his wife. He goes flying inside the house and I meet him moments later to the sight of their stove and area above the stove in a small inferno. She at this point is panicked and losing her shit. My buddy is running thru his house to find an extinguisher. I do a 180 and back outside to my truck and grab both of my extinguishers and nearly have a high speed collision with my buddy in the doorway as he has yet to find a extinguisher in his home. I pushed him aside and get to work first on the stove and then to the cupboard and microwave.

I know to fight a fire from the base first and make your way up. The fire got inside the base of the cabinet to which the overhead microwave was mounted to. Still burning I rip the dam thing off it’s mounts and smash the wood with my forearm to get at the fire. At this point I tell my buddy to bring some buckets of water since my 2nd extinguisher was nearing exhaustion. His wife called 911 and a volunteer fireman came before the trucks arrived and basically finished the job. Medic that came wrapped up my arm and hand.

Anyhow, I didn’t get dinner but my buddy is bringing over steaks tomorrow. Got some blisters and my skin feels very tight. My sister brought over some silvadene cream which has helped. Be prepared goats. You never know when or what life will throw at you.
