July 14th Unknown Hour ~8:45-9pm ish

"This situation is pretty funny. I mean, I was having dinner and watching anime and then the lights went off kinda suddenly. Like all of them. So I finished watching the show (it had managed to load fully. lol) and then kinda just went around the building. I felt like this was one of those times where complete strangers would band together for the common good simply because they live near each other. lol. Not exactly.

I guess cell phones get in the way, however, I did not have mine. I had left it in FB's car accidentally. >.>

I went out on the balcony to see what was happening outside. It seemed to really get people going. I have never seen so many people outside by my house. They all seemed to be walking in the same direction: towards the landlord's office. So I went too. I was disappointed to not find a crowd, but whatever. He tried calling Sasktel. Busy. As far as he knew, a couple blocks in each direction (but North) were out too. He figured since we are on a rural grid, someone may have hit a pole and set it all off, potentiall for a while.

So, I set off to find power.

Rather, I am going to go to work (the direction that had power). FB had kidnapped me from work yesterday, so my bike was still there. When I started writing this I was sitting at the bus stop. One bus, only going to the nearby mall, appeared. So I asked about transfers (I usually just take one bus).

Not today.

?

Sunday night there are no buses apparently. Since it was close she didn't charge me (Yuss! I only had one ticket left. xP). So I walk.

Now I am maybe halfway? I'm playing  with the idea of hitch hiking. CW would approve and it would be fun. lol. So far I ran into a Chinese lady with a bike. She didn't know about it all. Her English was not great, so now I am prepared for the next one (probably sketchily prepared): 我的家没有电气。你的家有没有吗. (getting eaten alive by mosquitos)."

So I kinda ran the rest of the way..?

Anyways, I'm about to bike home. It was like 10:45 when I ended up getting here and is now 11:40. >.>

Ttyl.
