Smoke House  = drawing

Description

What's that???

Many would say this is a ,small smoke-house' .

No, for that, it was made at the first place - but how is it used?

Many would say ,you can lift up the house and light a incense-candle so that smoke rises'.

No, so it should work - but for what is it used?

Many would say ,for a romantic atmosphere and an aromatic scent'.

No, for that it was designed - but how do I use it?

Oh right, excuse me, nobody knows things like that!

Well, from this object, there is a mental, perhaps an even metaphysical connection to the power supply of my cell-phone.

What, how can that be? – has PencilHB invented something incredible (maybe electric power out of smoke)?

No - PencilHB is awfully forgetful!

So hear, perceive, and be astonished:

My phone's battery is old and needs to be recharged every night - if I forget it, the phone can not be used the next day – then it must stay upstairs in the charger station (I'm always extremly sad about that ) .

Every morning, I put the smoke-house right in front of my bed, so that I must step over it, when I go to bed. Since I do that, I never forgot to recharge the phone

I also use this stragedy to remember other things – it works with every object, that makes absolutely no sense in a particular environment - it's amazing how we can remember things with that trick
