i really dont like power outages.  some crazy person driving a way too big humvee crashed into a transformer yesterday knocking out power for nearly three hours.  that means no games, no computer, no tv, no movies, and no heat for the lizards.  i have no problem with venturing outside every now and then, so i spent most of my afternoon outside with lizard in tow.  they each had a turn in the sun, so they were happy.  but i was upset because i was play diablo 2 on my laptop when power went out.  of course, not thinking, i didnt worry about it.  it was plugged in and charging, why worry about stopping play?  once the battery died, then i thought about it,  i had spent over an hour uncovering areas and the game logged out.  or so i thought.  thankfully, when power came back and the charger kicked back on, i realized that the game was still running and i lost nothing.  so it was all okay.
