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.
