One day I tried to stay home, because no one wants molton lava in their eyebrow, daggummit. Did I ever show you this scar? It’s from the lava, you know. So anyway, I tried to hide in my closet but instead I climben into the oven by mistake. Your grandmother was baking a loaf of rye bread at the time, and When I sat down on the upper rack, I really burned my hands and ass. Some of you think it’s hot when you sit on the bottom rack–Well, you don’t know nothin!! But I ate the bread while I hid in the oven, and it wasn’t cooked all the way, so I got some grubby disease from the raw eggs. It made my toenails fall off.
