Wow, one hell of a thunderstorm here right now. Power went off and on and off and on and the UPS/external batteries we have for the computers were beeping at me in protest. :p Wandered the Recesses of the Basement with a candle to look for the power switch, but the power was out in the whole neighborhood (which hadn't happened in quite a bit). It seems to have stabilized on "on" for now, though. Yay.
[EDIT] Mom and dad just got home and they said outside it's scary. o.o Fallen trees, half-flooded roads, etc.
And Attila the cat was of course Dumb (or Big Powerful I'm-Not-Scared Alpha Male, if you will) and stayed outside during the thunderstorm. He just came in, dripping wet and looking miserable.
