So there I was, sitting in my chair watching the Transformers movie (hehe) when all of a sudden the room goes dark, everything in the house shuts down and my dad says a phrase that's not suitable for the kids.
That's right, I just had a blackout! Went for an hour, too. Which is longer than usual around here, generally they just last for a couple minutes, if even.

So it made me ask some questions...

1. When was your last blackout?
2. How long did it last?
3. Cause any problems?
4. What did you do to pass the time?
5. Any fond blackout memories?

1. Just then, of cawse.
2. An hour, silly!
3. Not really, though I was really bored and kinda worried that it might've hurt my computer which was on at the time.
4. As always, dad and I just went into the living room and hovered around a candle. Great family time.
5. Back in Canada blackouts were fairly frequent. It was always really exciting, being in this big, double storey house... Everyone all gathered around the living room and breaking out the old scary story books. Just felt like a different world. Blackouts were seriously great for just old fashioned chilling.
