h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

It's early in the morning. My head is humming after doing laundry, cleaning celery and feeding Francisco (our fish.)

I live with my husband in a fairly disreputable section of North Minneapolis. A nice old house, a lousy neighborhood. Doesn't matter; we'll be leaving eventually. Until then, it's cheap and it's ours.

The sun is up, there's a cool breeze coming in the window, and I feel pretty good about life.

Time to write a guide entry. Wonder what I'll write about?

Hello... ~grin~... my head hummed once... me was quite alarmed... how do you overcome the situation????

I change the batteries.

~Greebo ponders this answer for a while...~

The batteries for what???

For my head. Similar to the way that smoke alarms start to beep when the batteries get low...

Okay, silly thing to say. But you asked for it.

Aha... me see's now... ~Greebo nods her head happily~... another mystery nicely cleared up...
