Blue Screen

It felt like a kick in the balls. I was cleaning up the result of the previous night's punch driven mess and I just wanted something to drown out my hangover. I went to turn on the television and it was a blue screen. I checked the connection, I jiggled the wire, I finagled with the thingamajig, and I even smacked the TV on the side for good measure. Nothing worked and eventually I had to clean up vomit in silence.
