Rubber Hash Browns

This morning when I was getting ready to fix my breakfast, I was pleased to find a plastic bowl of grated potatoes that Carol had evidently left for me to make hash browns with. I started heating a small egg pan, and put on a larger cast iron skillet for a sausage patty and the hash browns. I put a couple of pieces of Rye bread in the toaster, cracked the eggs in the little pan and started the sausage frying.
   When the sausage started sizzling I dumped the hash browns in with it and grabbed a jug of milk out of the fridge. While I was pouring a glass of milk I noticed that the hash browns looked kin of weird. I tried to slide a fork under them to flip them over but it stuck like they were fastened  down with Gorilla glue. Oh oh, I thought, those weren't hash browns!
   Realizing that I had a pile of cheese melting in a hot skillet I began scraping under the molten glob with a kitchen knife, which kind of freed up the fork, except that both the knife and fork were still attached to the gooey cheese.
   Wait! I thought, I can save this by putting the melted cheese on the eggs! It'll be good! I stretched the stringy mess out over the egg pan but no matter what I did I couldn't get it loose from the knife, the fork or the now smoking glob in the cast iron skillet. If I just had a pair of scissors and another hand!!
I had my arms spread as far as I could but it just kept stretching out like rubber spaghetti.
   I finally got most of it on top of my surprised looking eggs, and after cleaning the stove top, I managed to scrape the remainder out of the skillet, into the trash without setting off the smoke alarm.
   ( I did that later while I was lighting a fire in the fireplace.)
