That title sounds like something right out of Bones except in Bones, the head wouldn’t be attached to a body. In this instance, it’s my head in the freezer, which is far better than having my head in the oven.
There is a problem with my refrigerator. There was water inside. Water, water everywhere and not an ice-maker in sight. After doing some research online, I discovered that what is probably causing the problem is a clogged drain tube in the freezer. I figure, okay, that doesn’t sound too complicated to fix so last night I emptied out the entire refrigerator and freezer. (Luckily, we have a second one down in the basement.)
This morning, after being unplugged all night (the freezer, not my head), I was able to stick my head in the freezer without getting frostbite. There was, however, the question of how to see inside a dark freezer when it’s unplugged since the light is now off. Ah! I know just the thing: my trusty emergency lantern!
After removing all the different internal parts, I found that the bottom was a solid sheet of ice. After cleaning out all the ice, I discovered the drain hole (see the red arrow above). There was a slight problem, though. I have no idea how to clear it since it’s under that back panel and I can’t get anything in there to clear it out.
I am now off to hunt for a piece of wire to see if that’ll work. I’m either going to fix the darn thing or kill it.
I say kill the damm thing with a wire coat hangar that has been untwisted. You don’t even have to buy a new one…just haul Old Faithful up from the basement
. I know, I know…I’m nothing if not helpful!
I think I fixed it. Keep everything crossed.
It is ALL crossed. I didn’t mean for it to be, but it is nonetheless

If we don’t hear from you tonight we will send someone with an ice pick
You didn’t stick your tongue on anything in there did you?
HAHAHAHA–Katy! Good one(s)! For being tired, you’re still pretty sharp. Not, however, as sharp as an ice pick. So, neither one of us is much good to Monkling in her possible-time-of-need
