I wake up, get in the shower, and turn the knob.
Nothing.
No water.
Then, I realize I’ve turned the middle knob. The shower-or-bath knob.
Oops.
I turn the one to its left and HOT HOT PAIN HOT!
I stumble out of the shower and look at the note on the sink GET THE TEMPERATURE RIGHT FIRST damn, I forgot.
I reach back in and get the temperature right before stepping back in.
Soap. Shampoo. Shave. Brush.
I stepped out before turning the water off…
And couldn’t breathe.
On my nightstand, another note:
DRINK SLEEPING ELIXIR ANTIDOTE.
Can’t… reach… bottle…
One thought on “Knob”

KNOB. A four letter word. Look it up. A boring word until the urban dictionary gets a hold of it. Ignore that. We all know the knob is a hill. Yup, and hills are for climbing. Head ’em out, move ’em up… A day outside is, uh, a day outside – on a hill, with a dog. Businesses are built around knobs. You need your knob climbing clothes, your knobby gear, the water with a boost in it.
$20 worth of trail mix will get you up and down the knob and into the car.
Come on Spot, let’s go home.
