The section about lighting is the literary version of my current search for a new bedside lamp. (How dare my old one die!)

TheBookHippie In the same boat… 1w
GingerAntics @TheBookHippie I thought I found a solution… then my mother wanted one, and no to turn on one is to turn on the other and she wants it off when I need it on. 🤦🏼‍♀️ 1w
TheBookHippie @GingerAntics I had an old tiny lamp I used since the 80s it died Sunday 😝 1w

GingerAntics @TheBookHippie oh, now that is heartbreaking! Thank you for your long and storied service, lamp. 1w
GingerAntics @TheBookHippie mine still technically works… I think. The light bulb went out, so I replaced it and it still didn‘t work. So I got all new bulbs. None of them worked. 🤷🏼‍♀️ Mine is only 4 years old I think, but man I used that thing every day and how am I supposed to sleep now?! It was the light I put on before I went to bed. 1w
TheBookHippie Right?!?! Mr BookHippie is like just leave the big light on 🤣😝 he travels most weeks … 1w
GingerAntics @TheBookHippie no, if it‘s too bright I‘ll never actually go to sleep. 1w
TheBookHippie @GingerAntics my exact words 🤣 1w
GingerAntics @TheBookHippie it‘s a very delicate balancing act of light enough to see, but not light enough to keep you awake. 7d

“...my mind had put off all it had borrowed of Miss Temple—or rather that she had taken with her the serene #atmosphere I had been breathing in her vicinity—and...I was left in my natural element...beginning to feel the stirring of old emotions. It did not seem as if a prop were withdrawn, but rather as if a motive were gone: it was not the power to be tranquil which had failed me, but the reason for tranquillity was no more.” #QuotsyApr19

If he had ever had any one to talk to about his secret terrors—if he had ever dared to let himself ask questions—if he had had childish companions and had not lain on his back in the huge closed house, breathing an #atmosphere heavy with the fears of people who were most of them ignorant and tired of him, he would have found out that most of his fright and illness was created by himself. #QuotsyApr19
