Darkness

Personal
I'm working on this site in the total
darkness of a blackout—glow little MacBook,
glow. As far as I can see outside the only
lights come from occasional passing cars
and the soft orange luminance from the half
of Ann Arbor that still has power. It's
just after midnight and the power company
doesn't expect the blown transformer that
(aparently quite literally) exploded
earlier tonight to be fixed for another
eleven or twelve hours. Iteresting how
we're so depedant on power. I actually kind
of like the quiet; I just hope everyone in
the apartments around me is warm and have
enough blankets.
