Fail!storm
Jun. 21st, 2009 05:46 pmSigh. It didn't even rain very much this afternoon, and there was no lightning, but my power is out anyway. Naturally, this happens right at the time I want to be done with reading all day (mmm, exciting combination of the 101 reader and postcolonial theory...hey, maybe I should make my kids read some postcolonial theory!) and play on the computer.
However, there is a Panera nearby, so I have dinner and an internet connection, and, after a fashion, air conditioning. (Which is to say, they have it, but it's turned to, I dunno, maybe 85 or something. Still, better than nothing.) I'm just hoping the power comes back on before a.) everything closes and I have to spend the night in unairconditioned misery, and b.) everything in my fridge/freezer spoils.
ETA: Obviously, whining about these things online is the best way to solve them! *basks in breeze from window air conditioner*
