Roundabouts 8:30-8:45, a transformer at my apartment complex blew. I heard this sound like a shotgun, then boom, no lights, nada. Knocked out the power to at least 5 buildings. Sorry if I was talking to you on AIM then and suddenly disappeared. I am at a coffee shop now, using the internets there. Because even activities that don't require power, like say, reading, still require light. Flashlight really wasn't going to cut it. The gym still had power, so I went there and worked out for like 40 minutes. I really hope it's back on before I go to bed tonight, so I will at least have an alarm clock. I have my phone charging here now just in case.
Mood:: um..no power

Funny how that stuff changes... when I was a kid we used to love blackouts. Come to think of it, I still do... but I know many many people who don't. For all the reasons you listed. :-)

I loved them as a kid too. It was an excuse to do all sorts of crazy things with my brother. Living alone, not so much fun.
