no power, con’t

Some more detail, now that we’re somewhere warm and bright, connected to the internet.

Thursday night was the big wind, and the power went out at about midnight. Yesterday we went out a couple of times, once down to Centralia to return something, then for a trip out to Fred Meyer (with lunch at Taco Del Mar) and again in the evening when we were cold and bored to Old School Pizza.

I slept pretty well until maybe one or two am, and then just unevenly.

Now we are visiting with a friend in Puyallup at least for today and maybe overnight.  Here it is warm and bright, I have taken a shower, and as a bonus, there’s TV!  (And yes, the internets, too.)

I’m just hoping, hoping, hoping that the power comes on tomorrow or Monday at the latest.

Because — hey! — I start my new job on Tuesday, and I’d really like to take a shower and have clean clothes beforehand.
