Day 13 and Still No Power

My friend, Heavy P, called me on the cell phone to brag that he had power. I wished him a hill of painful ill. He apologized for calling, but he just had to say something (to someone who didn't have power I'm sure.)

The house is dark, the rooms are cold and things are still in a state of disarray. The airmattress is getting harder by the hour. My patience is thin, but what else is one to do but wait and wait and wait some more.

The announcement this morning was that power should be restored by Friday. We will see. Considering there were no workers to be found on my street today (so reported my neighbors) that I am not yet convinced. We shall see.
