My mom's always been scared of lightning, but last week when it was really hot she lost electricity, then there was a huge flash of lightning & her power came back on.

Since then she's all, "I LOVE lightning!" & I'm like, "You don't love lightning, you love what you think lightning can do for you"

  1. It seems like maybe she just loves electricity. I agree with her. Electricity is good. I’m glad Ben Franklin invented it.

  3. True story:

    My mom once unplugged a window AC because she thought it was stealing the electricity from a plug at the other end of her house. She had forgotten that particular plug was controlled by a wall switch. She was 92 at the time.
