Romantic bath

Our bathroom light was out since Saturday night. It antagonized me the whole Sunday because I was holding out as much as I could to avoid bathing in the dark. Naturally I couldn't go to bed without a bath after a whole Sunday's worth of activities. So eventually I bathed in virtual darkness except for the hint of artificial night-light entering through the little gap by the door slightly left slightly ajar.

I'm no fan of darkness. I like being in bright places. I can sleep with lights on too. This little bathroom light, or the lack of it, has caused me a fair bit of inconvenience.

Returning from work today, I was distraught to learn the light remains inactive. I made a racket and Poppadum came to my rescue. Poppadum did a little magic and made the bathroom seemed like a cosy little place to hangout.

Battery operated push-button lights were hung up on 2 opposite walls and a torchlight hung above the sink to facilitate teeth-cleansing. The bathroom was glowing in a gentle, cheerful manner happy to greet me. I was, too, genuinely happy to see it with cute little lights hung up. It was a little like bathing by the moonlight. Only this was enclosed. With doors. And a shower. Not forgetting the toilet bowl.

I was so intrigued by the bathing-in-the-moonlight that I was happy to groom my brows afterwards. Hurt like hell it did.

Happy to have a new blog template and restore the life to this little space.


Time for bed.
