I just tiptoed quietly out to the kitchen to pour myself another cup of coffee, trying not to disturb those still sleeping in our home.
I set my empty ceramic mug on a 'non-existing counter top'* where, by the laws of gravity, it fell promptly earthward and, by the laws of Murphy, into the dogs water dish, where it then splashed water, shattered then scattered pottery shards all over the kitchen floor.
The resulting crash now has the whole household up and all the lights turned on. (I'm blaming the lack of light for this incident.) So much for letting everyone sleep in this morning.
*note: six inches left of the 'existing counter top'.
