A christmas miracle
Dec. 15th, 2011 03:22 pmA few minutes ago I contracted a severe form of tourettes as a result of noticing that half of my tree lights were off.
Don't start on at me about my diamond shoes rubbing.... this minor irritant of modern life totally does my head in every year, because I have hundreds of lights on the damn tree and it happens ALL THE TIME.
For future reference, fiends, can anyone please tell me - what on earth is the name of the feature that I'm looking for when I buy a string of lights - there must be a word for those type of lights that let a single bulb blow without taking the whole string with them? (I swear next year I am replacing all of the buggers with these).
Anyway - back to the miracle. After subjecting G to a lengthy grumble of extreme blueness, I set about the tedious task of testing every single bulb... and, lo! And yea! And a rustle of angel's wings... the very first bulb I tested was the blown one.
Little pleasures, fiends...
