How aggravating. This afternoon I was taking my daily surf when *BOOM* power goes out. I don't have a UPS or a laptop, so neffing is out. How would you pass the time? I took the opportunity
(since it was still light out) to replace the outlets in my living room. Ooh, exciting, I know....

Sit outside usually and read or spend time with my family for a change.

I have a notebook with an extra battery for those extra long nef sessions . . .

I just shut down my main desktop,computer and plug a CFL into my UPS . . . if it's a long time, I go for the Coleman lantern and plug my notebook into my other UPS.

SEX!!! Finally time for SEX!

If you have a significant other, he/she is probably looking at the power outage as an opportunity. Seize the moment! :D

I would really like to call someone to find out why the freakin' power is out, but I usually sit there, fuming, trying to figure out why I have a phone you have to plug into a power source for it to work.:| -kd5-

you could read, go somewhere, and figure out something else you like to do besides the computer, TV, or anything electrical-
