5.2: The best case for an iPhone
This post almost didn't happen tonight. Around 7, before the girls and I got home from gymnastics, the power went out. Around 8, the UPS's that should have allowed us to get on the internet on the laptops and wireless connection (which wasn't working, don't know why) gave out. At least the obnoxious beeping finally shut off. Rex put the kids to bed and then...
And then, what? No tv (and no DVR! Oh, noes!), no internet, no lights, no sound, no fridge or microwave or heat.
All right, well I scrounged around and found a couple lights and we can read. I really wanted to finish my book anyway, so I guess this isn't so bad. It's not like I had anything important to do tonight. Ah, shit. NaBloPoMo. Ok, I'll just pump out a quick Halloween post and then I can read.
Wait wait wait. Go back.
No internet?!?!
The laptop? No, no WiFi.
What about the iPod? Oh, wait, that requires WiFi.
Our phones? No, they're just phones.
Well, hell, it's day 2 and I'm already getting knocked out. Guess I'll read for a while and pray I the power comes on/I don't fall asleep before midnight.
