Sweetness and Light

The latch on my car door was frozen when I left work tonight.

I was able to get the door open— but it wouldn’t close all the way.

This meant I had to physically hold the door shut as I drove home. A process made even more enjoyable by the fact that I was “lit” from above by the overhead light. Since it was dark outside, the spotlight effect made the idiocy of my situation more visible than it would have been earlier in the day.

Why didn’t I turn the light off? Well, it wouldn’t go out —because the door was open!

On the plus side, given my “mood” at the time I guess we can all be glad that light doesn’t transmit sound... or fury!
