Welcome to the world of advanced mind consummation, or why my hair hurts. It hurts because I never leave well enough alone.
We are the people of the handicapped lifestyle (me and the family), that is the lifestyle that makes you do with what you have, while everyone else gets it easy. For instance: the broom that turned on the kitchen light. That’s right, a broom that turned on our florescent kitchen light in the old house that we once lived in. The light fixture was one of those round florescent bulbs, that if you turned on the switch, it didn’t light up unless you first took a broom handle and set it inside the circle and ran it around the bulb real fast, than it lit!
Or how about the TV we bought from a hotel or motel chain that was liquidating its inventory of used TV’s for a cheap price. Plug it in and wait for it to come on, then smack it on top for sound.
Or best yet, the radiator that never quit, keeping us warm and toasty in the middle of July and August, pouring out steam without ever letting up. If you shut down the radiator, you didn’t get any hot water!
It seems that that is our lot in life, taking on the handicapped circumstances that enter our lives, and never turning away from the challenge.
Well we bought this universal remote control, that is supposed to operate many components with the push of a few buttons, and of course it gives me trouble. But I have been playing with it for only 24 hours, and tomorrow is another day.
