Last week there were loud hints of Autumn In the air.
This week global warming is back in fashion,
Another damn heat wave.
I don’t like air conditioning but marriage is a democracy.
We got home from the soccer match
and out team lost.
And she wants cold filtered air.
Conveniently now the air conditioning no longer works.
It’s broken kaput
Our soccer team had no electricity
Fuze boxes are mythical scary things to me.
Their logic is somewhat beyond me.
Until it isn’t.
I start flipping switches and find the g-spot.
The air conditioning revs into motion.
My wife yells down stairs it’s working.
I walk upstairs feeling like a genius,
Despite being deathly afraid of electricity
Specifically fuse boxes.
