So my house-mate returned through the front door. Neither of us mentioned any potential intergalactic threats, and I don't even know if she's at all involved. It's all a bit confusing.
Still, if she wasn't using the invisible portal in the back garden I can only summarise that the intergalactic lawn mowers can now open 'pull' doors. It may look bad, but rest assured that I will fight until my last to save you guys and the rest of the world from whatever comes through that portal. I'm not sure how assuring that is, but there you go.
On a more positive note, it looks like Oven might pull through. One side's definitely broken but the other has regained a little control and can cook meringues and Baked Alaska (but not much else). I think my house-mate is seeing if we can get her fixed up.
I'm supposed to be writing an Easter report right now (that was due in before Easter.. ¬-¬ ) but I seem to have forgotten how to words. Hopefully sticking some here will get my fingers in the mood for typing and I've got some epic-sads music going. I don't know if that will help but you never know. I could get some epic sads into my Easter report.
Also I saw the hobbit. I love Martin Freeman [although I always say John Freeman. I have literally just realised this is because he plays John Watson and not just because of actual John freeman existing.] That guy is both a brilliant Bilbo and ace in general.

Oven Conspiracies
I arrived home today to find the back door open. Not that this is particularly unusual because its a rather nice slightly warm day, which practically counts a heatwave compared to the freezing cold that's been raging around these past few weeks. I'd taken my time walking back from church, and my house mate has a car so she had probably arrived much earlier and was enjoying the sunshine in the garden. Except that she wasn't.
After taking a look round and locating the fish pond, (which actually a giant plant pot, and I think that's pretty cool) I briefly looked round the house and could see no sign of her. This lead me to wonder why the back door was open at all. The door itself is quite stiff and usually locked, and I extremely doubt my house mate forgot to shut it before going out. (It's more likely I forgot to lock it after opening it on Friday to let some air through, but even then it's a bit too convenient that it would open all by itself right when the weather was looking up.)
The oven started playing up last night (and still is), and before turning in for the night she was going to tell me something as we passed in the hall (before she was interrupted by the oven alarm for my evening meal.) At the time I thought nothing of it; it sounded like something about not seeing me on Sunday morning which is not particularly usual as we rarely see each other on Sunday mornings (she gets up a good few hours before me), however in hindsight I realise I only assumed this was what she was saying.
What she could have been trying to tell me was that the ovens were uprising and that she was planning on stopping them by travelling to a different plane via the invisible portal in the garden and would probably be around much today.

In which case I should probably not shut the back door because when she returns from her adventure she would find herself locked out in the back garden.
However I do not believe this is entirely the case as my house mate is pretty level headed and would have left me a note or a text to let me know not to shut the back door if this was the case.
In the great scheme of things one cannot simply assume that one's house mate does not want you to shut the back door because she is on a crazy adventure to stop the ovens as this is not a very practical thing to assume. Indeed I do not even know if the ovens are the cause of this whole fiasco: maybe the oven breaking was simply the first sign of something yet to come, they might have even been defending the earth from attack but were recently attacked themselves and can no longer both defend the earth and cook food properly.
It is more likely that my house mate found herself embarking on an adventure through the garden portal to suddenly to leave a note (hopefully of her own will and not because she was abducted by lawnmowers; I notice we do not have one of these, so there is a chance she knew a little of the situation before hand. If this is the situation at all.) and that last night she attempting to warn me that something might be going down but that she did not know the situation entirely at the time.
Hence I will shut the back door (for it grows a little cold.)
Either my house mate will return from her sudden crazy adventure, after which I'm sure a closed back door will be the least of her worries, or she just went to a friends house after church (a common enough occurrence) and there are some crazy mysteries going down. (In which case I should shut the door anyway and pretend not to have noticed anything strange, lest I too end up caught up in some crazy intergalactic war of household appliances.)
