Woke to no Internet. The atmosphere was (still is) loud, and the trees were (still are) gesticulating wildly -- probably trying to tell me the ISP antenna had blown down. Called the ISP to request to be put on the repair list once it's safe to use their bucket-truck (which proably means Monday, because the wind is supposed to last to Saturday morning). Then there was a bang and a bunch of car horns at the intersection, as the power went out. Connecting via phone, but gonna have to conserve battery. Whee.

Fell asleep as daylight faded. When my bladder woke me there were flashing lights of crison and azure, and a wrecker winching a car off the front steps of a boarded-up house across the intersection. Guessing another car probably helped it get there, most likely fools driving through that intersection too fast. (each thinking, "I'm on a _major_ street, so all side-street traffic will surely yield to me"). Forty minutes after that, street lights came on for most of my block, but not all the way to my house or the corner -- traffic signals, and my house, are still dark.

Hauled a bunch of stuff downstairs to plug into my Pennsic batteries to recharge for a spell.

Wondering how far away I have to order pizza from, to find a place that's had power today to be running their kitchen.
