So, we've been without power since Saturday. Aside from some initial whargarbl once we realized it wasn't coming on for a while, we've been managing. Subsisting on tuna(electric stove) and trekking to the library the next town over for internet (and I'm doing NaNo for the first time, so that's been hilarious), but managing.
So, Jackie and I were driving home from the library, down a street that leads onto our street, when lo and behold, functioning traffic lights! I squee a bit, but Jackie reminds me not to get my hopes up, but we're both pleased that lights are back in our neighborhood. We continue driving, and the street lights aren't going anywhere. We drive up to our apartment, and we see lights from the windows. We drive by our apartment, and see that the lights are back on, and we squee and yell like children in the car. Oh electricity and warm food, how I missed thee!
