THE EFFECT OF CEEPHAX ACID...

...is a busted chandelier.

I was blasting "acid legacy - a2 - seasick acid" and dancing around
like a madman, when my chandelier, previously considered a luxury,
became a liability. Jumping around my plastic bins and music gear, I
happened to knock over a roll of paper towels used for extreme
napkining when I so had the need. I took this in stride and grabbed
the offending roll, the tail that unfurled acting as some sort of
ghetto acid streamer. All was well and good for another fifteen
seconds or so... then, the crazily twirling tail of ULTRA ABSORPTION
happened to catch the aforementioned chandelier, sheer acid might
shattering a bulb on contact and showering glass down upon me and my
belongings.

Now, the previous day, I had been soldiering a connection on a
perfboard (by the way: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NDDDL5bJdSA)
when a different one of the three bulbs decided it was at the end of
its tenure. I had YosepH on at the time (track: I Love Acid) and was
feeling pretty chilled. As I fead noxious metal into the hot iron, I
suddenly was greeted with a

ZZZZRTPOPBYE

And one of the bulbs went. I honestly thought I'd blown a fuse, or
died, or something.... but, no, just a bulb going out. The room had
become significantly dimmer.

After the seasick acid incident, I am down to one bulb, which was all
I had to guide me as I attempted to clean up the numerous shards of
glass. After a good while, I felt I'd gotten the larger bits, and
broke out the vacuum which, to my dismay, was stuffed to the brim with
cat hair. I am allergic to cats, but like the resident lil' bugger in
spite of this. Nonetheless, the vaccuum sent me into fits of sneezing.

I'd been wearing rubber-soled slippers, but changed my socks
afterwards just to be safe. A childhood incident where my father
stepped on a christmas ornament has left me a lifetime of terrified
fear of glass shards.

THANKS CEEPHAX ACID!!!!

Now it's off to watch a formulaic harrison ford action movie and get
drunk enough that I no longer fear glass penetrating my food, entering
my blood stream, and causing a heart attack by ventricular
lacerations.... and fall asleep calmly.
