Power Failure

Last night I went out with the guys to see a movie and grab some late dinner. After the movie I turn on my cell, about 9:30PM and there's a text from my wife saying that there's a blackout in our neighborhood. The chivalrous side of me told my buddies that i had to go home to my wife to make sure all is well. For all I know there could be looting and killing or a zombie invasion underway and I need to get ready.

I got home to find that pretty much just our block was out, and our next-door neighbor managed to have power. WTF?!?! So I told Mrs. Bax0jayz to hop in the car, time for food. We drove into the city afterward to pick up a painting my friend made that I had framed by a client.

By the time we got home, around midnight, power was back up. So I pretty much missed out on a night with the boys and beers for nothing.

Well, you made "points" with the wife, I'm sure, and that's NEVER a bad thing.

You would think! I think my wife is wired weird I suppose.
