The Struggle for Power......

Wouldn't ya know it, Chris and I get home last night and about 20 mins later the freaking power went out AGAIN! But first......

Chris took me up to meet Amy in Cambridge yesterday. Amy and I went for lunch to a place called "Not Your Average Joes." I had never been there before and it was really good. After lunch we picked up Travis and headed over to help a couple who just moved here move some stuff into their apartment. When I say just moved here I really mean JUST! They had arrived in Boston around 11 yesterday morning after driving 3 or so days from Oklahoma. Anyways we waited for Chris to show up and help the guys move a gargantuan couch. It was pretty entertaining, I think it took them a half hour just to get the couch through the first door in the building. Fun times!

After we got their stuff moved in and waited for AAA to come and unlock the moving van so Bryan(new guy) could get into it since he locked the keys in there! Ha! By this time Becca and Troy had joined us since they had since gotten off of work. Chris and I led Katie and Bryan to the moving truck place so they could return it and get their car. Then we all headed over to Amy and Troys for pizza. John and Kelly also joined us. Poor Troy, he gets off work to find out EIGHT people are coming over for dinner! HA! Anyways after dinner Katie and Bryan headed home and the rest of us went to see Batman Begins. Too my pleasant surprise it was an EXCELLENT movie! Chris and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I was a little wary about seeing it just because other than the original Batman with Michael Keaton I have thought all the Batman movies were STUPID! This on the other hand was totally different from the rest and very very good.

By the time we got home it was almost midnight, Belle had energy to kill and we also had to go up and let the dogs upstairs out cause they were gone away for the night. We get back inside and downstairs, I had just connected to the computer to check email and DARKNESS! It's getting old people...I mean really! How many times are we going to lose power. I don't know what the heck could have caused it this time because it was far from being hot today! It didn't last for long this time, maybe an hour at the most. But then when we woke up this morning our clock was flashing, which means the power went out again while we were sleeping. ARGH! Driving me NUTS!

Alright, that is all. I need to get stuff done, Amy and Troy and maybe Becca and Travis are coming over to eat before tonight's softball game!

Well aren't you popular! I also liked Batman Begins. Travis made me see War of the Worlds and I hated it. Sounds like you are busy, busy, busy. Must be nice to have a life...enjoy it...someday you'll have kids :)

It sounds like an enjoyable day, but busy!

The stupid power. You'd think by now they would have whatever is causing it fixed. That would annoy the heck out of me too.

Yes it's wonderful to have friends. Enjoy them! It's hard to make new ones at our age. I can not believe the power is still giving you issues. Gee wizzikers! That is silly.
