Today's events

This morning the power went out a little after 8 am. This gave me about five minutes to check my e-mail. The power did not come back on until about 6:30 pm. In the meantime I discovered that I had about 1000 more US dollars in my bank account then I thought I did. That is always nice. I also finished grading the last 20 midterms for Aspects of World History 1914-1945. I couldn't get much else work related done without electricity. But, I did finally buy a flashlight right before the power came back on. So the next time the power is out after dark I will be ready.
