Berate myself for not charging my devices :/
Polish my bishop. :-)
And then I spank my monkey. Damned thing's recalcitrant as hell...especially during power outages. :-)
Edit: you really don't wanna know what I do to my poor chicken. :-D
Eat, sleep, read printed material, wash with a scrub board, hang dry, light candles, run small errands to places that have power, etc.
I hate to be boring but we don't have them .. but I think I could abuse, sorry, amuse myself ...
My house has a generator so the power never goes out.
I continually flip the light switches. Annoys the hell out of me.
Wait for my husband to come home. He was an Engineer for our local Electric company for decades!! lol!
My husband hooks up our generator.
Leave the house or use candles or flashlights.
hunt up all my candles
We don't really have these. Hmm... I looked up some ideas though, and this one seems rather fun...
Ice Creamocalypse
The power's off! This means only one thing - your fridge and freezer are off too! Make your way as quickly (and safely - you don't have the sort of padding you'll probably have afterwards yet) as possible to your freezer and remove all ice cream in sight and launch yourself into it with anything you can get your hands on - forks, knives, spatulas, spades, CD cases... maybe even spoons! You'll probably have some reservations about how good for you it is but don't worry, you will be heralded as a local hero, poets will write sonnets about how you bravely put ice cream before yourself and let not one atom go to waste. People will talk for years to come of how - like the Carpathia to the Titanic - you came to the aid of ice cream in need.
