I almost caught our house on fire with the space heater

I cannot believe that I almost caught our house on fire with the space heater.

I feel that this is what I get for ignoring and laughing about the dumb directions on the packaging of the space heater.

I have been using space furnaces for years. I do not like having to use a space heater, however since our gas furnace isn’t the greatest gas furnace in the world, I have no option however to use the space heater. Once I am able to upgrade the gas furnace, I can finally get rid of the space heater, however for now, I am not worried about it. When I bought this new space heater, our fiance told myself and others to be careful with the space heater. She was afraid that I was going to catch something on fire with the space heater. I laughed at our fiance because I thought that it was deranged that our fiance was worried about the space heater. I have been using space furnaces for a long time. I wasn’t going to burn anything flammable on the space oil furnace or anything. However, I still almost caught the house on fire with the space heater. That is what I get for not studying the directions. I did not realize that the fiance for the space oil furnace was thicker than usual space heaters. I blocked that space oil furnace into an outdated outlet, and within a few hours, the outlet had melted and was shooting flames on the carpet. Thankfully, I was walking by the room where the space oil furnace was located! I feel that I should have listened to our fiance and looked at the directions on the space heater.
