power outages pt. 2

so i finally got to sleep at around 5 am and since i love to sleep with my fan on, and couldn't, all i basically did was toss & turn. when i say that i love to sleep with a fan on i mean all-year round. i don't care if it's 17 degress outside, i need my fan on. so with only 4 1/2 hours sleep i woke up to silence. which meant still no electricity 'cause in my family tvs would be blaring. my mom had me call the electric co. and the lady said that there had been an accident and it caused damage to the pole and the wires and the approximate turn-on time would be 1 pm. must of been some hell of an accident. anyway, we (mom, dad and i) decided to play scrabble. and in the middle of the game-hallelujah!-the electricity came back on. 2 hours before the lady said. we managed to finish the game 'cause i knew everyone just wanted to watch tv. mom won like always, but it was still fun. my dad who swears he can live on that pbs series "1890's house" was the first one on the recliner enjoying the benefits of electricity, watching tv. yeah, right dad. so, it didn't turn out to be that bad but i'm sure glad it can back on. electricity is a great thing! bye!
