Vignette of a Saturday night at home alone.

  1. Refill the ice trays in the freezer.
  2. Notice glow sticks that have been in there for 2+ years because one time you read that you could reuse them if you put them in the freezer. 
  3. Use the ice you originally went in there for to make a nice, frosty adult beverage.
  4. Sit down in the recliner.
  5. Surf the internet while absent-mindedly crunching the glow sticks in the hand.
  6. Toss the glow sticks aside after realizing they’re clearly not going to have any radiant rebirth.
  7. Write off alien residue on the hand as condensation from delicious adult beverage.
  8. Stick finger in the mouth for unknown reasons a little while later.
  9. Experience burning sensation on the tongue.
  10. Deduce ancient glow stick fluid is now in the mouth.
  11. Consider all options that don’t involve standing up.
  12. Stand up, head to kitchen, rinse out the mouth.
  13. Ponder how you made it to the age of 28 without constant adult supervision.
