Home & Powerless
Ugh....storms. Although I'm used to rain and expect it, I think this is the first major power outage I've seen since moving here. I'd just go for a drink but I'm supposed to patrol tonight which once again they are waiting till the last minute to cancel. So I have to be here till 6pm, in the dark, and sober. UGH
sadness is coming home to find both your roommates sitting in their rooms in darkness and silence, just staring out ahead of them because theyve been sitting without power all day. One was just watching the rain through the sliding glass door in his room. The other sitting in darkness, staring at the walls. I was like "Awe, thats sad".
The other was after the power came back on. Im on the phone with David and the door bell rings. SFPD is there responding to a 911 call apparently made from a landline phone within our apartment. Funny is, we do not have a landline phone and Im the only one home at this time. I hope the lines werent crossed somewhere and someone who is desperately needing help isnt receiving it because of such.
Man, its a whacky day
Update: Power came back about 5:30, and patrol was cancelled. I built a fire and watch Ugly Betty Season 1.
