Lights out

I keep thinking I should bundle up and go outside one of these nights.

As the kids go off to the Land of Nodd, one or the other has trouble finding the way.

Usually it's The Champ, whose Santa-supplied rechargeable flashlight has given him a stage-effects-like power over the night sky.

From my room I see its light dancing across the hall with seizure-inducing speed.

I imagine the effects from the outside are just as dazzling.
