It’s 10 p.m.
You’re lying in bed,
and something brutal and merciless is happening in your stomach:
night hunger.
It’s sending signals
to the goblin in your brain that it’s going to die unless you get that spoon
out of the drawer and dip it into the peanut butter jar for a little late night
snack.
You wait until the
right moment. That moment of no return where you stop fighting the urge to be disciplined,
and you just go for it. Before you can think to change your mind, you make it
to the hallway. Unfortunately, without the use of light bulbs, your hallway
suddenly becomes a labyrinth - You must make your way over dangerous stair
slope, and across the treacherous sea of baby toys in the living room before
you can reach the beloved pantry.
Hand on the light
switch, you make your first attempt to flick the hallway lights on.
Nothing.
You’re probably just
having a bad dream. It’s fine. Try again.
…Nothing.
At this point,
violence is the answer, and you’re aggressively flicking the light switch up
and down in the name of hunger. You realize from the extreme exhaustion in your
arm that this is no dream, and you’re currently suffering an electrical issue.
In the middle of the
night,
whilst having a
hunger episode.
…too…tired…
You make your way
back to the coziness of your bed, deciding against the journey through the
hallway without the use of your beloved lighting. You’re feeling a bit defeated
and very peanut-butter-less.
You can’t sleep. On
top of hunger, you now have constant questions popping up in your mind
regarding this electrical outage.
“How does electrical
stuff even work? What makes a light blow out? How does a fuse work? What is a
fuse?! Do I take a hammer to the wall, attach the fuse to the light (is that a
thing?), do a rain dance, and call it a day? I could get shocked. Oh God, what
if I die? Should I start writing my will? I don't have life insurance. Maybe I
should buy my kids a puppy since life insurance is out of the question.”
Then it hits you.
There’s a way out. You live on to cheat death yet another day.
