I wasn't around yesterday. Because a small hurricane hit my town.
It was...... interesting. I was arguing with a robot about how to draw a proper spaceship, and then all the phones started ringing at the same time, and the town's air raid siren began to blare in the distance. I'd never heard it before, and just kind of thought, "I had no idea our town could afford an air raid siren"
30 minutes later, a 90 mile an hour wind blew through the whole town for about 15 minutes.
Thus began 18 hours of no power and no internet across half the state. Being a night owl, I was lucky enough to enjoy a night of sitting alone in pitch blackness after my phone died.
It was an interesting experience, of getting the pov of people during wars. You're just going about your normal life, and then everything suddenly stops working. Your refrigerator, your phone, your computer. Everything. I probably would have developed a new appreciation for all the luxuries we have in life, but they turned the power back on and my feral day as an apocalypse survivor is now only a dwindling memory.
