A Second Refrigerator
It is scaring me to think that the electric bill is already outside the house. I do NOT want to see how much I will be paying.
I thrive on the basest of necessities. One of each kitchen appliance makes me happy. So happy in fact that I always try to kill the topic if the "necessity" of a second thingamajig or thingamabob ever bubble out the consciousness of my mother.
I have to pick up the bill tomorrow. I dread it. Although I can never run away from bills. I think God programmed me to be meticulous about instruction and respect for service providers.
Well, not all of mother's ideas get to be screened by me. She bought another refrigerator! And she stocks it with evil food!
I would have liked to sugarcoat the fact that its a "small" refrigerator, but an appliance capable of preserving food for a family of three is hardly NOT to be described a modest size. We are a THREE-member family with two refrigerators!
Now, despite my sighs and disappointment, I have learned to love that appliance and its evil food. On the other hand, it also does not fail to remind me of its adolescent, raging motor!
It seems a bit too late to murder the new member of our appliance, loved instantly as the tempting things it brings to me. I shall have to expect the worst for the bills I have to pay. I shall have to imagine I have a growing child to feed.
