Yeah, you know, I feel kind of gypped. Television and fanfic have both brainwashed me into thinking that if I have to undergo such tribulation, I *should* be rewarded with either a PROFOUND FAMILY BONDING EXPERIENCE or else really hot sex and significant relationship revelations.
On the other hand, I am actually happy to NOT be with my family at this moment (none of us take inconvenience with much grace), and the fanfic h/c scenario also generally includes serious injury, so all in all I guess I'll just be happy with my slight boredom, slight inconveniences and access to heat and hot water.
(Glad to hear you survived your own adventures-in-power-loss without gross bodily injury. Yikes! Like I said, I prefer to weather these things mostly on my own, so that sounds close to hell, to me.)
