I was just trying to follow doctor's orders.
The doc told me to heat up a rice bag and put it on my eye every hour. Sounds simple. So I put the bag in the microwave in our basement, then ran upstairs to grab something. Apparently the timer was on for a lot longer than I thought, because when I got downstairs smoke was pouring out of the microwave.
I managed to run the thing outside, and tossed the burned rice bag into the trash. But the smoke didn't want to leave.
I now have every window and door open in the house, and have a fan running. I'm considering a run to the grocery store to buy some Febreeze. I already took a shower and started washing all clothes and blankets that came in contact with the smoke.
This sucks.
Any ideas on how to get this nasty smell out of my basement?

Nope. You're screwed.
so far I've used nearly 2 bottles of Febreeze. It seems like it's getting better in here.
Ben comes home tonight so we can go out any night Sunday-Thursday. Let me know what day works best for you and your busy social calendar. And if your nasty eye disease has cleared up.
Leigh...I've heard that a good, butter-loaded bag of microwave popcorn'll do the trick. If ya ask me, I don't think it'll work...but think of the English women in the 18th Century who hung garlic cloves from their neck...might help to disguise other not-very-pleasant smells.
So this is what you're doing instead of coming to work on a Saturday? Arson? Really, Leigh, you shouldn't do that.
