Because I like to blame as much as possible on my mother as I can…
She calls from her mobile phone as she drives through the desert, on her way to California. Her call drops. She calls back, about 5 minutes later. Not a minute after talking to her, the power goes out. Not just power here at the house, but power for the entire neighborhood! Stayed out for almost 2 hours.
When Mom fucks something up, she doesn’t mess around!
