there was a blackout in NYC last year. No TV no Computer... I thought I was gonna go nuts... so what did I do? Talk on the phone lol
Complain about the heat and read books.

All the neighbors got together that night and had a bbq that lasted till 2am and that was kinda nice. Goes to show what can happen if you have no power. Hell, thats when I met half of my neighbors for the first time.

All the kids were playing outside too and that was nice. The heat was the worst part. I cant live without my AC in the summer. I keep a fan running and a window open all through winter. I need the cold.
