Microwave Antics

One of my LJ friends entertained herself earlier by putting things in her microwave, and since I was bored and am in a Monkey See, Monkey Do state of mind, I decided to put some things in my microwave as well. I’m sure if Lin knew, Mr. Safety would give me a big lecture about putting things in microwaves that don’t belong in microwaves, but he’s not here. When Mr. Safety is away, Orb will play!

That’s a CD after two seconds. Sort of pretty, so I am going to do some more … because maybe I can find some crafty use for them. Always looking for interesting materials, you know!

And as you can see, no photos can be taken in this house without at least one cat in the frame.

    Looks like mosaic tiles and I think it’s pretty! I’d be scared to try, sticking things in the microwave that’ll make it pop freak me out. Did it smell weird afterwards?

    There was a little smell of ozone, but I was surprised it didn’t smell a lot. I’m serious about the two seconds. I thought it would take longer to do anything, but I hit the power button and BZZZT, FLASH, and it was over. It is pretty!

    I’m trying to figure out the best way to get them into small pieces. I want to cover a box with a mosaic of this stuff.

    And yeah, well, putting things in your microwave isn’t really smart. I’m sure someday I will do something and it will go badly. If I cared about my microwave, I wouldn’t do it, but it’s already mostly broken. Being forced to get a new one would almost be a blessing.
