Whew, I just experienced the scariest 20 minutes of my life. The electricity in our entire apartment complex just went out.
It’s -12 outside right now. That’s 10 F. That’s seriously cold. As I lit every candle in our apartment, all 4 of them including my new Christmas tree candle, which I was thinking was more for decoration, all I could think about was a night huddled under every blanket we own, all 4 of them. And then I realized that this is what I get for wondering how my neighbors live without heat – I was going to experience it first hand.
Thank god or buddha or gaia or chairman mao or whoever managed to reconnect the electricity!
