At 2am I was just finishing up a Combat Card of Reitsuki K magically placed on a castle, when the howling wind took out some wires and the trizzities went out. There was a strange on-off-on-of-on-off stuttering during which (short) time I scrambled to turn off the computer. It was pitch black and my flashlight batteries were dead, so I staggered off to bed in the dark.

The power came on a bit after noon today.

I had just been reduced to washing windows for amusement when the power came on. I hoped the computer was all right, and so, it seems, it is. It's still rather windy, dim, and cold outside, and cold inside. This house is all windows on the lake side, but even with that I need to have the lights on, which seems a bit unfair at 1pm.
