Top 10 things to do without power
Top 10 things to do without power (for Earth Hour):
10: Try to figure out what time it is on the mainland without using world clocks on my iPhone.
9: Use words to describe things instead of just "hey look at this!" attached to digital photo.
8: Step way from the seductive glow of the laptop screen & look out an actual window.
7: Concoct libations without blender. Check. Martini shaker allowed. :)
6: Concoct libations without ice. AK! :( Wait, where's the corkscrew?
5: Ponder environmental impact of whale oil lamps. How far does the no-power regress go?
4: Strike "clean bathroom" off to-do list because no light. Embrace power of procrastination.
3: Wonder how to tell when hour is over. Sundial not functional in dark.
2: Wonder if drinking warm wine in the dark without consulting Twitter counts as meditation.
1: Oh come on, the hard thing was coming up the the other 9!
