I have power now (actually, as of 11:30 am yesterday). Still, though, 3½ days without electricity... ouch. At first, I was wondering how people in earlier times tolerated the dark and cold; then, I realised, they didn't. Their homes had wood stoves, they had candles and gas lamps substituting for our electric lamps, etc.

In other news: I've been working too much. As a result, I completely missed the news about India's ( and 's daughter) third birthday (and other random LJ-announced events, but this bums me out the most).
