*Chattering teeth*

It is so cold in here I can barely type. I'm wrapped up in a t-shirt, dressing gown, fleece skirt and fluffy socks and I'm still freezing. The heating is on the windows and doors are all firmly closed; so why does it feel colder than hell in here?

I'm still freezing. Even the lab which is normally kept warm by the heat from the molten parrafin wax in the processing centers is ice cold. I swear the lack of heat is starting to get to me. I can't think straight today, but then maybe that has more to do with the appalling nights sleep I got yesterday.

On an unrelated note, I noticed that all the street lights were still on as I came into work. I've just checked outside and they are still blazing. I can only assume this is some kind of widespread electrical fault. Have any of you noticed this?

It's so simple. Almost painfully obvious really.

The answer came to me on the bus home. There is only one neat, simple explanation that ties it all together. This accursed cold, my disrupted sleep patterns and the street lights being on all day. Think about it.

The sun has gone out.

I haven't seen sunlight all day, just streetlights reflected from the low cloud cover. And this is all we have now. Streetlamps and starlight until we all die from carbon dioxide poisoning.

But I have made up my mind. I will not go gently into this night.

Once I got off the bus I visited my local garage and purchased two cans of petrol. They have now been poured over my flat.

If the sun has died I will be the first to light a funeral pyre.

After I post this I will sit here and smoke one final cigarette.

See you on the otherside people.

Slipping down a darker hole...

Just to be very clear. This post, this post and this post were all made for one reason. And that reason is this.

Please accept my apologies in the unlikely event that I worried anyone, but I decided a few weeks ago that instead of writing something in advance for today I would just go with what my brain spewed out on the day. And this is what happened :-)
