Strange Concerns.

Sometimes when I’m taking a shower, I find myself suddenly possessed of an odd fear. What would I do if there was a power cut? The room would become profoundly dark (since I always shower at around midnight) and the water would run cold. It’s almost as bad as the fear of being buried alive.

Decision: I’ll get new batteries for my spare torch and keep it in the bathroom. I could always burn a tea light, of course, but that would be an unnecessary expense.
