Well THAT was a long, boring, sweaty night in the dark! I listened to old-timey music on the radio and listened to my dad talk for, not kidding, two hours straight. He doesn't usually get an audience for that long (although Andrew does usually make good time!) so I stuck it out for him. The good thing about my dad is that he doesn't even need you to nod or pretend you're listening. You just have to be in the room...
The power finally came on at around 3:30 pm here. There was much rejoicing. I was certainly overreacting yesterday and forgetting to count my blessings. I'm over it now. I was much luckier than most of the people affected by the outage. Poor Cleveland. I'm really worried about Cleveland. I hope there are no snafus with my flight tomorrow. It's going to be very difficult getting to the airport. No subway service, and traffic is so rotten that we may have to call the cab hours and hours and hours ahead of time... |
