i don’t really feel like talking about what happened yesterday. i will say this. at 4:10 pm we lost power. we didn’t get power until this morning. i felt like a pilgrim living in the 1700s. my family and i hovered around a portable radio and like 5 candles and 1 flashlight. it was hot and humid. i’m just glad i wasn’t still working at the dreaded kpr because i would probably never have made it home. i’m glad we didn’t have any water shortages like unfortunate cleveland. i’d really like to know the REAL cause of this huge blackout in the north east. it’s funny how canada originally said that lightning struck the niagara powerplant on the ny side. then governor pataki denied that such a thing occurred. i hope they find out what happened. i heard some rumors that there were already power problems before the huge black out at 4:10 pm earlier. how come no one was notified? i don’t know. anyway, today i didn’t get to go to woodbury commons because grace hasn’t been picking up her phone. i even called her house phone. i hope she made it home okay. i really hope the john mayer concert is still on, or else i’m going to be very angry and sad. it’s so hot at home. i miss a/c.
