September 8th blackout

around 330pm on thursday, everything went dark


we sat outside on the lawn
(under our third floor balcony)
me, Jamie and Pookie had a day on the lawn
well, spurts of daylight i should say
we sat outside and listened to the radio with neighbors
we watched traffic back up due to freeway accident so everyone was using the only major road straight through Mission Valley
the street lights are out and one lane was closed earlier in front of the mall, so traffic backed up well past our place on Frairs.
the gas station was filling up with people that needed gas but the pumps weren't working.
ridiculous


so we tried to sit inside for awhile but without fans and the temp in the nineties, we didn't stay long


we broke out all the candles even the scented ones and the place resembled a french whore house!
finally, put those out and went with the tall ones.

we then back outside around 10pm, watching people reading books in their car, sitting at the gas station while our car idled in order to recharge my cell phone

finally went to bed around to see if we could sleep

by morning the fan was running at my bedside, so i knew all was good again!!!
