I know, right? I’m just saying – glowsticks can be a very convenient thing to have a (minor) infatuation with…  saved us a lot of bumping into things without actually worrying about burning the place down. (Which would be inconvenient.)  And I get looked at funny for having a bag of them.  USEFUL, I SAY!  (Hubby has been chuckling at me all night, but he’s not complaining.)  I’m not kidding, though – weirdest start to an outage we’ve ever had; it was a lightswitch rave on the whole block for a solid 15 minutes (power out, power on, power out, power on, etc) before it finally went for good.  Just wish I’d have made dinner, first.  (It’s not that I can’t cook now, it’s that I am afraid to open my fridge, since I have no idea how long it’ll be out – we’re figuring wind damage on either the lines, or a transformer blew).  Ugh.  I’ll take ficrecs for when I have proper access again, though…  you know, to cheer me up… *hint, hint*
