Saturday evening I was doing a jigsaw puzzle when suddenly my power went out. It was kinda cool, because the puzzle was glow-in-the-dark. It only lasted about ten seconds and then it came back on. A few minutes later, it did it again. After a while, I was watching tv (trying to watch Pretty Woman, which was on), and intermittently, the power kept going out - just for a few seconds. I think it did this about twenty times. Finally once, (about 15 minutes before the end of the movie, mind you) it decided to stay off, probably for about 45 minutes. Let me tell you, I was bored out of my mind! Because guess what? I have a candle...but no matches or anything...and no flashlight, so I was kinda sitting there in the dark twiddling my thumbs. I could have gone outside, I suppose, but I was in my pajamas and it's probably not the best idea to just loiter outside in the evening in Las Vegas, particularly when there are no lights around for a while!
Now I know I need a flashlight and matches for my apartment...although now that I think of it, I do have a flashlight in the trunk of my car, so I could have gotten that, I suppose. Ah well. It was a fun adventure doing nothing on the couch...except trying to call people - nobody seemed to be available at the time!
