Power Sharing of A Different Sort

I was in the middle of checking insurance quotes online when...POOF! The power was gone; another interruption of service. We’ve been experiencing them for a month now, and per the authorities, we will be having them off and on until May or June. That sure doesn’t sound too good. The power outages are due to shortages the region is having, and nothing can be done other than hitting the city and the region with rotating brownouts, rather than shutting the power off for an entire day in certain areas.

In many ways, rotating brownouts are better, compared to long hours of brownouts or blackouts like we once experienced. This way, we only have to go two to three hours each occurrence. Still, it can be very uncomfortable and annoying.

Anyway, the power just came back on, so I must belay my musings and continue browsing the net for insurance quotes.
