It's amazing how everything (but my bodily functions) ceased when the electricity company cut the power during a poco-powerful storm. It's been off for 7 hours now.
I was lucky that my handheld held all day (after the laptop had died in a fight scene of a psycho-thriller) even though I Whatsapped, BBM'd, Gtalked and tweeted all day.
In a blast from the past, I scoured every column and feature in the Graphic and Mirror by torchlight. Nostalgia - I don't read the papers anymore. I get all my news from the digital media.
So, the electricity company goons may outdo even their own assinine record. I'll turn the vacuum into a positive experience.

There's definitely something to simple life...although just after 7 hours or so I tend to miss the modern luxuries...
ReplyDeleteI have to say there was something ironic about a day of non-stop rain against a background of having limited water supplies at home. Makes you wonder.

ReplyDeleteI think Fiona could not have put it better. My dear neighbour, these days, you're so silent on the list-serv...I keep forgetting;-)
