Dudes, I am writing this wearing an undershirt, a long-sleeved t, two sweaters, long johns, jeans, two pairs of socks, a blanket and a hat.

In my LIVING ROOM.

But I am not complaining! even though I can't type all that fast since my fingers are freezing. NO. NOT COMPLAINING. Not complaining because I like this whole "having power again" thing. A water main up the street burst last night, flooding a transformer, and it's been twenty-four hours since there was an internet in my life.

Or, y'know, heat.

I like them both! I am glad they are back!

... I would also like it if I didn't have to put on mittens while reading fic.

Indeedy, I do! I can see the mall from my house. *says in a Tina Fey voice*

My house is still pretty chilly this morning, too.

How 'bout this power-outage-in-the-winter thing never happens again? Yes?

You live near the Dufferin Mall! I live pretty close to the Hasty Mart that became the 23/7 or whatever it is now. (Actually, the new one has all old, expired stuff. It's gross.)

Yeah, next time we have a power outage, can it be in fall or spring or even summer? Or not at all?

I vote for "not until I have a coleman stove, some stored potable water, and a bunch of nutribars".

Although "not at all" would be totally ok with me, too. :-)
