Mimmi- But.. But I want it now..!

--

Power was out today. I died several times.

I actually decided to get on Guild Wars for the first time in weeks. I felt bad for abandoning my Guildmates (not that I did much in the first place), so I got back on and attempted progressing.

But then the electricity mysteriously cut out. I restarted twice because of this, but eventually I gave up and tried to go upstairs and make a dent in To Kill a Mockingbird. Then, as I started, thunder began booming, and lightning flashed. The lights dimmed, and finally went away for good.

It was as if God himself came down from the heavens and commanded that I not do anything constructive. So I played Meteos for a bit, reread Xbox 360 articles in EGM, and used my iPod sparingly (as in no backlight and volume at the bare minimum).

Then I was bored. So bored that I played Jenga with my brother, and then I took a nap, hoping to wake up to the glorious, cold, lifeless glow of technology.

But it was not to be. I woke up around nine, the power was still out. My brother was harrassing my mom, and my dad was still at work. I came downstairs, and by candlelight finished To Kill a Mockingbird. I must say that the book grew on me as I got farther into it, but I would still consider it rather forgettable. After that I read the first three chapters of Ender's Game, which I'm already enjoying much more than Mockingbird, and then I took a bath.

When I came out from the bathroom, lights were on, my brother was cheering, and all was right with the world again.

It's sad how meaningless my life becomes without electricity. I worry.
