Late last century, I shared a deluxe rental house in San Diego with two civilians. It was much bigger and nicer than any one (or two) of us could afford on our own. Great situation with countless rooms on different floors and different schedules, we seldom had any contact. One roomie was a gadget freak, letting us enjoy a monster stereo and remote control everything.
Smooth sailing until one morning at 0430. I was heading for work, badly hung over in a dark, silent kitchen, standing maybe a foot from a brand new coffee pot on a timer that starts by grinding whole beans. Fine! I needed new underwear anyway.
