home alone this past wednesday
on laptop doing some work and lurking QR at same time
9:45am Central time
lost power
computer, tv, everything went off
i said to myself
oh shiiiitttt, it's happening!!! i freaked out for a second
composed myself
put on some headphones and listened to music for a couple of hours
spouse came home
i said power out for 2 hours
spouse: yea i know
me:do you know, did inauguration happen?
spouse: yes, i listened to it on radio in car
i could not freakin believe it
just a random power outage
at the very time!
i looked at spouse and said: have we been taken for a ride?
spouse: looks like it
this is a true story
it was the suckiest of days
spouse and i have recomposed
are hopeful again
but my time is limited here
just thought i'd share
ya'll are the ONLY people who would get the rollercoaster that i experienced in those 3 hours on 1/20/21
