Blackout of 2003

So, as enforced by the "Blackout of 2003", I tried twelve whole hours without the internet, and decided that life without the internet was boring.

Yesterday was all the excitement I need for the summer.

I'm ready to go back to college. Where we have our own generators.

Poor you! *hug* Is it nice to have your AC and such back?

I've been in a 12 hour blackout before and it was hell. My mother was like "Let's play marbles by candle light!" and I was just "No. I want to play checkers. I want to play ONLINE checkers. I want my computer back, DAMN IT!" Luckily, it happened to me in the Winter, though... so it was nice and cool x_X

But yeah... I would have gone insane if I was you. And I'm making no sense so I shall go back to sleep...

Man, I understand perfectly. I went through such a withdrawal. No 'net, TV, PS2. Would would've thought we were so dependent! oO

I am an electricity hoe. One day I'll start eating electricity.

Once, I lived through a 6 hour electricity cut by...sleeping right through it. But it was horrible enough already, so I don't know how you can put up with no electricity for over 12 hours. I'll go crazy for sure...
