Lights Out

Yesterday was pretty great. After work I came home and did a few thousand chores, went up to my parent's house, had dinner, and all before Matthew got home. :-)
I have a lot more energy in the afternoons, so we are going to try to forgo the carpooling so that I can come home and get more done, which should lessen our anguish on the weekends. Yippee
I got watching an old movie on one of those "so-and-so Classic Movies" channels and was so engrossed in it that when Matthew had finished his dinner I refused to leave until it was over. It was really a cute movie.. so we sat there and he got into it too.
After it was over we headed home and started watching TV when the power shut off. Then the power came back on again.. then off again. We lit candles and oil lamps and I read a few chapters in my new book The Dogs of Babel by lamplight. When it was time to go on to bed I decided to go up to my parent's house because I am a huge afraid-of-the-dark kind of girl, and Matthew was quite content to fall asleep without my nightlight.
Well, after spending about an hour at my parent's the lights turned back on and I headed home, really excited to be in my own bed and not having to worry about how I would get a shower in the morning ;-)
