Power outage

Tonight we had a power outage.  I was (of course) working on a final for my class that is due in a few days, and our city had a major power outage.  The best part?  I had not saved my work yet!  I am really grateful for auto save, because while I did lose some of it, I did not lose it all.  Another reprecussion of the power outage was that I had not made dinner yet, and we all had to go out to eat since I was not able to cook the chili that I had planned. 

We turned a newer restuarant tonight.  It was decent, but not great.  I was happy to see that it had a full bar though.  I did not drink tonight, but it is rediculous how hard it is to find a bar in my county.  We usually have to drive over to another county to drink (which admittedly is only a couple times a year, but still!). 

The kids were happy about going out to eat dinner.  Since a large portion of our city was without power, the restuarant that we went to had a fairly large crowd inside it.  Once we ordered, it wasn't until after 8:30 pm that we were served our dinner, which is 30 minutes AFTER Princess's bedtime.  We arrived home about 9:15 or so and promptly sent both kids to bed.

Which reminds me, I need to get into bed!  I have to wake up in six hours!  Good night!
