Jun. 23rd, 2006 11:58 pmMy day was...interesting.
Me: It's a beautiful warm day and I've just gone tubing!
The Universe: O RLY? How about a thunderstorm?
Me: I love thunderstorms! I shall sit here and write poetry by the light of the window.
The Universe: All right, how about the power going out?
Me: Still plenty of daylight, and at least the storm's over. The power company will fix it soon.
The Universe: What about a tree falling on the lines leading to your house? And across half your driveway? And you have 18 Shabbat guests coming over at seven?
Me: ...god, I hate you.
Actually, it wasn't so bad. We had candles and the windows open so it wouldn't be too hot inside, and then I went over to my auntie's for the night (hello wireless and a water heater). And it was funny to sing the Birchot while everyone was fanning themselves with the cards that the words were printed on, because it was so hot.

Hope they get rid of the tree soon though!
