This weekend, I took a trip to my local Caribou Coffee store to get some work done, grab a mocha and meet up with a friend. It ended up being about a 4 hour adventure. During that time, I plugged in (the AC adapter for) my MacBook Pro and laid it on the chair next to me (thinking it’d help keep it from getting too dirty. Not thinking, I threw my coat on top of the adapter.

Four hours later, I started to pack up and grabbed the power unit. That thing got HOT! Apparently, hiding it under a wool coat with no room to breathe isn’t a good idea.
Now, if this seems like an obvious thing to NOT do, GOOD! For some reason, I had a lapse in judgement. I figured I’d go public with the news incase other people are tempted to do the same thing I did.
