Survived

Well, we came through the storm unscathed, only loosing power for about three hours on Sunday evening.

One thing I did notice over the weekend though, is just how very sensationalist The Weather Channel was. I had it on as background noise while I spent two days reading on the couch (Eleanor of Aquitaine by Alison Weir). Why do reporters INSIST on standing out in the worst possible weather they can find to show us how bad it is? I mean come on, we can still see how bad it is if you face the camera at a tree. I kept expecting a billboard to take out the reporters!
