The Importance of Being Idle

Might As Well Face It, You're Addicted To Stuff

In what can only be described as an ever so slightly turn of events lightning struck a transformer (I think it was Optimus Prime, but I could be wrong - in fact come to think of it I AM wrong 'cos he died in the Transformers movie didn't he? Whilst he was being voiced by Orson Welles?) or something equally technical, and I have had to spend a couple hours without electricity! *gasp*
How did I cope you ask?
Well, those of you who've actually been to my house (so just Emily then) know that there are candles EVERYWHERE, so I just lit some candles, wound-up my wind-up radio, and read a book. It was actually pretty fun.
Of course as soon as electricity was restored the PC, TV and Xbox were switched on IMMEDIATELY, but that's just because I'm pathetic and addicted to modern technology. It'd be fun to try and spend the day without these things, but then, what if I miss something? Don't ask me what I might miss, I don't know, but something, and something of import too.
Ooooooooh the storm's a-circling, I can hear the thunder rumbling all around me. I wonder if I should turn the PC off again?
Nah, I didn't think so either.
