So today, when the power went out after we got home from school, I walked into my still cool apartment and set my school bags down.
It was quiet.
My computer was dead.
My treadmill wouldn't work.
Disconnection from the world accomplished!
Two hours of blissful silence reigned
As I rested my weary head
Then whir, hum, pop, stir
Life returned again.
Moral of the Story: Next time I need a two-hour nap, I'll just call the electric company! :-)
