Candlelight Hero

I went for a run this morning in the dark. I made ham and eggs and hash browns for breakfast in the dark this morning. I showered in the dark this morning. I dressed in the dark and made lunch in the dark all before having to leave for work, early, this morning.

All this is a lie.

I actually did it all with inadequate candle light. Not enough candlelight to do my eyes any justice. I burned my thumb from holding the lighter too long to catch the nubs that are moonlighting (get it?) as candle wicks in each of my worn-down candles.

I went to work just as it started to rain.

I welcome you, storm of the century. Please allow my power to come back on in time for my milk to be ok.
