"It's Outrageous"

"It's shameful."  I have been hearing such complaints from he who shares the house since 7:00 last night when we lost power. The power company website assures us that normal service will be restored by 9:30 p.m. tomorrow. He's right, of course: after the brown-out which messed up the computer, the black-out will now melt the ice cream, sour the milk and make life generally miserable.

At least we can heat water on the stove and have this warm and comfortable branch of the library just half a mile away. Catch you later.
