So Toby and I are having problems with our dishwasher-it's possessed!
At first I turn it on and it runs for a few hours, without water! It was hot as hell and smelt like burnt plastic...not a good sign!! So we aired it out and decided to look into why it wasn't working later.
Yesterday, we came home and I was getting something out of the refrigerator and noticed steam was coming out of the dishwasher. I opened it, all the dishes were wet, steamy, and ....clean? I turned to Toby and asked him if he decided to wash the dishes-he said no...we called Josh thinking he might have (very unlikely), but he hadn't. Hmm...my immediate reaction: look around the house. Why you ask? Two things were running through my head...look for things that might be missing, you know just in case we were burglarized...and they decided to do my dishes? My second thought...look if anything else is cleaned up, maybe we had a cleaning fairy that came while we were working, cleaned and did the dishes. My search came up with nada. I had a brief thought of my mom coming in and cleaning, but she would never..and my house was way too messy for that to be true.
So, the verdict-my dishwasher is possessed. We are going to hopefully preform an exorcism this weekend...although the dishes washing themselves may not be a bad thing. Now I just need it to load and unload itself.

The exact same thing happened to me in Cali! Well, not the self-washing, but the running without water. Apparently I put it on the wrong (water-free?) setting. The maintanence guy thought I was retarded, and I thought my dishwasher was crap.
I must admit, I'm not astonished by possessed appliances. Didn't you ever hear the story about Meghan's TV when we lived together during Mosscliff days? Ask me about it next time.
Too bad I'm a realist and doubt the existence of the cleaning fairy. :(
What make and model is that self-cleaning dishwasher?! Does it come in black?
