Yet this is exactly what a 27-year-old Joliet woman did on Tuesday, suffering 2nd-degree burns. Naperville City Desk sincerely hopes the young woman heals quickly and learns a valuable lesson from this mental lapse. If anyone cares to provide the woman's address we're happy to cut into the office fudgesicle fund to send her a flashlight and some batteries to keep in her car for any future lighting needs.
