A Shocking Experience

Who knew that motherhood was so dangerous? Some sort of freak power surge just happened in one of the living room lamps. The bulb exploded. And the lamp base was all tingly. Which was odd, since it was wood. Clean up! Clean up by the couch! Fortunately, this sort of thing was covered in home ec during my senior year in high school as well as in elementary chemistry. Pity they didn't cover what to do with wiggly hypercurious toddlers.
