Blinding

Someone put a light as bright as 100 candles outside of my bedroom window to promote "parking lot safety," so those who have cars will be even safer and those who walk will experience no increase in protection. I recommend a reform bill; the upper class is clearly being favored. And at the expense of my sleep! It is as though the sun never sets on this empire.

  1. How very tiresome! Are they not aware of the grievous effects that insomnolence can have on one's life? So many terrible things can befall one who is deprived of sleep. I am quite sure much madness begins in such a manner.

    And one hundred candles! Just think of the expense! And the wax. One morning you may awaken (provided you ever manage to fall asleep) suspended in an immobile sea of paraffin. While it may prove beneficial for your skin, the same may not be said of your constitution.

  2. My dear sister, at times I have contemplated the consumption of laudanum. Two tablespoons before bed would doubtless have many benefits; however, it seems dishonorable in my situation.
