Lights Out

The lights went out because some loonie ran through a T intersection and crashed into the power station box that apparently controls our neighborhood's electricity.

So we lit candles throughout the house and put one high on our bedroom credenza to light the room. Four minutes later, the smoke alarms throughout the house (yeah, we have them ALL connected) went off, and we couldn't figure out why. You guessed it: the credenza candle was right under a smoke alarm, which has never gone off (thankfully) so we were a bit puzzled as to how to stop it.

Then we just had to laugh because it was SO STUPID. I know you're not that, you know, dumb, but what's made you smile and laugh lately?

Great use of the word "loonie"! That was a fun night. It felt like something in a movie! It's good to have a sense of humor, otherwise life wouldn't be nearly as enjoyable.
