words from the bathroom floor

i often wonder what we have in common. and im looking for a little advice. how are we supposed to know when to put away the candles? when the flame stops flickering, when the hot wax ruins the table cloth, or when you're good and ready to blow them out and call it a night? i would say the latter, but lately i've been noticing my candles to flicker out and die long before their time. im not sure what to make of it. but i am beginning to realize that i've wasted a lot of time and money. which is more than you can say, you blind soul. you just wouldnt think of it, you just wouldnt see it, you just wouldnt care. you just wouldnt. and thats you. but not me. im a money waster, but the problem is i dont realize i've bought a piece of crap until i've brought it home and thrown away the receipt.
