corilannamSo I had marvelous intentions for last night. I was going to come home early, have dinner, do my laundry, then settle in for a relaxing and productive evening of working on my TPM story, playing with my Sports Night episode guide, watching Ewan on MTV, and listening to ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
sithdragn freak out about the hockey game.
And I was so pleased with myself that I was making it home, despite all the buses running late, just in time to avoid the storm. Or something. Because just as I reached the front door, all the power in my complex went out.
And stayed out. Until 3:30 in the freaking morning.
And we discovered that we are completely helpless in the face of low tech adversity ("What do we eat?? The microwave isn't working! Aaaack!"). I also discovered that reading by candlelight is much less romantic than it looks in the movies, and much harder on the eyes. I am much too dependent on technology for many things, including my entertainment. I ended up calling my mother just because I literally had nothing else to do, which worked out because I owed her a phone call that I had been putting off.
And in the way of productivity, I did manage to get a couple pages done on my Seyonne/Aleksander story. Good thing I was handwriting that one anyway.
*yawn*

And look -- another game on in 45 minutes.
"What do we eat?? The microwave isn't working! Aaaack!"
LOL! I know *exactly* what you mean by that one. Cook? As in oven and stovetop? Eek! Such a sad, dependent lot we are. But they'll pry my techie toys out of my cold dead claws before I give 'em up.
