currents and fuses

well… nothing political this time. It is more about my home and the electric appliances in it. On Saturay we had a blackout for a minute or two. As the power came back, it obviously came back with all force… so the fuseswitch which connects the water boiler with the circuit was inflamed and stopped working. The result was, that we had no hot water. So I decided not to wait for the electriacian because the possibility that he can do it better than anyone else goes against zero. I bought a new fuseswitch and started to intall it. Of coure I removed all fuses which were in charge for the bathroom. I thought. I did not have in mind, that some of the sockets in the bathroom are connected with another room. Good for me that I never trust electric stuff and used a tong with plastic handle. The tong with the plastic handle shortly after had a free flight through the bathroom and I felt the shock right up to my shoulder. But there it stopped. Thanks to the plastic handle and the fuse of the guest room, which was rejected as a result.

But obviously this was the straw that broke the camel’s back. Combined with the never ending noise, the fuckin’ barking dog of our neighbors and the general struggle in this country with all its problems and the detoriating perceived security, I have the strong feeling that I need a vacation. Urgently. Or I need Master Yoda to teach me the higher skills of contemplation and relaxation….
