I found myself with power yesterday. EDF installed a new electricity meter and all my plug points just stopped working. We were abruptly thrown into chaos, and the thing we were most concerned about was not the fact that the fridge can't cool, or that there's no hot water, it was that the internet stopped.
I took it as a chance to put off some of my lesser-relished promotional-type tasks and just sit down and draw instead. Perhaps it was to vent frustration, but I chose this grizzly scene from 'One Thouand and One Nights' by Hanan Al-Shaykh. King Shahrayar finds out that his wife and his ten concubines have been cheating on him and so he metes out swift and final justice to all concerned.
