power outages pt. 1

why is it that almost everytime there is a power outage it seems to happen at nite? not in the middle of the day where you can read a book or a magazine or paint or play a game but at nite where you can't do anything but sleep. at nite, hence no lights, where you then go scrambling to find matches, lighters, candles, flashlites and batteries for the radio and possibly the flashlite. and, of course your not use to being in total darkness so you keep walking into things. yep...that's what happened to me last nite @ 3:37 am. just happily on-line when all of a sudden screen goes black and everything else too. lovely. then i panic. it's not that i'm afraid of the dark, it's just all of a sudden you can't see anything. i like knowing that i can turn on a lite if i need to. and, there's none until i trip my way into my room & feel for my lighter and candle. thank God i always leave those 2 items in the same exact spot. so in short or long (turned out to be pretty long) power outages need to start happening more in the day time or not at all and they most definitely suck. bye!
