Last night, at Coffee Tree, while doing a bit of work on my essay for Neuropsych, and putting some more imagination into my fantasy blog's background story, the power went out for about an hour. The Coffee Tree people were left in a bad position -- it's really dark inside the store without a light source, and outside of a few peoples lighters, my laptop was the only source of light.. so I stuck around, despite the internet being gone, and turned my desktop background white to provide more useful light for them. Ahh, the laptop as a flashlight... not the first time, and I used my cell as a flashlight too when I went to use the restroom. Anyhow, the power came back shortly before they were set to close..

I also had a dream last night, where I was in a moderately fancy restaurant with my friends from high school, but .. we were just standing. Then we started walking through the 'staff areas' of the restaurant, back through some more user areas, and finally up some stairs, into a really fancy part where we were mostly alone. Caterers and such were there, and we ate, while Matt started talking about being engaged and such. I felt bad, because I couldn't remember what the occasion was that he invited us for this kind of thing, and hoped that something he would say would jog my memory.
