Power Went Out; First Thought?

"Wish I had some booze."

Of course, when it comes on, I'll probably have the same thought.
Stupid addiction.

My first thought would be, "okay, where did I put the flash light ?"

I think thoughts are thoughts - meh...I thought the same way for 20 years.

It's what we do in response to the thoughts that's the important bit, Ob

Yeah, I figured I'd tell someone who would understand and shrug it off.
So I did, with the warm glow of my smart phone providing peaceful ambience...

Good idea, tell someone the thought, seems to lose power when it's not just in our head

That thought goes through my head when we have bad storms for some reason. I think it stems from growing up near the Gulf coast and drinking through hurricanes.

Hi, Obladi.

Addiction is stupid but you are smart. You can outplay it.

Obladi, I would probably have thought the same thing. Habit-black outs after black outs?

We're supposed to get a massive storm here next week. Storms have always been a trigger for me-storm watch parties, the restless windy weather, etc. It's also going to be a full moon I need to find a new way to howl lol

My first thought: Wegman's time!

Wegman's is a really nice 24-hour grocery store. I gotta keep my gadgets charged up!
