(Scene: 1AM and our girl K is woken from peaceful slumber by a sudden thunder of sleet upon her bedroom window. Unable to fall back asleep, she gets a brilliant idea…)
K: (thinking to herself…obviously) UGH! Sleet! You are SO RUDE to wake me up like that when I was having a tough time even falling into a good sleep! Now I can’t stop tossing and turning and LOATHING NATURE! I guess I could read a little bit…OR I COULD DO MY EYEBROWS!!! I never have time in the morning, so I might as well do them now…
Voice of Reason: (This is probably a bad idea. It’s 1AM and you’re sleepy and took some strong medicine before bed. A better idea is to–
K: (responding to VOR) Shhhhh! It’ll be fine.
VOR: Right. That’s what everyone says right before things go suddenly VERY wrong.

K: Because that’s the kind of VOR I’d be paired with.
VOR: You are beyond my power.
K: I think we both knew that as soon as I thought doing my eyebrows at 1 AM while drugged was “the best idea ever.”
VOR: Touché.
K: Wish me luck!
VOR: You are so stupid. GOOD LUCK.
(Guess who’s eyebrows look FANTASTIC?! That’s right. Sometimes we all need to ignore that little voice and go with what feels right; be it a song choice at karaoke or grooming eyebrows at 1AM while on powerful medication. Spontaneity is the spice of life. End Scene.)
