In fact, it is hard to do much without power except maybe read a book. I was sitting in the chair just finishing up my pb&j when all of a sudden, I think I've been shot. But really it is just the power going out with a bang. I look out the window and see that to the east, all of Waynetown is still on, but to the west everyone is running out of their houses like there is a fire in them, so I know that it is just that direction that people lost power like me. After 10 minutes, I decide to call the utility company to see what is going on. I ask them why my power is out and they tell me that its not. I said hmmm, that's funny because none of my electronics are working! They then say that they will send someone down. So, after I explain to the man that comes that there was a loud bang and then people start running out of their houses, he sets off to look for the cause of the outage. As I watch out the window, I see him circling the block...over and over and over again. After about 2 hours of this, my power comes back on. I am trying to decide if he was being like the people who marched around the walls of Jericho, only he drove around the affected electrical unit? I did not however, see him blowing a trumpet, so I figure he must have known what he was doing. That is my excitement for the day.
Now, I am off to start my laundry and finish running the sweeper. Just thought I would share my morning of excitement with everyone because I know you were all dying to know about it. :)
