This Monday morning was a little unusual. The first out-of-the-ordinary moment came at about 3 a.m. when I woke up and noticed our air conditioner (window unit) was off. I have absolutely no problem with no AC (the hotter the better, for me), but I was pretty baffled as to why Tim would turn it off without me begging him to (the colder the better, for him). Anyway, at 6 a.m. I made my way to the kitchen (which is also my office) and flipped the light switch, but nothing happened. A peek at the microwave — no lights on — convinced me the power was out. No power also meant no internet, which meant I had no way to get my work done ahead of my impending deadline. So off we went to Starbucks, where a delicious $1 Asiago cheese bagel kept me going through my morning work rush. The bagel was cheesy and soft and chewy, just like a bagel should be, and if I have to repeat the ordeal again tomorrow (our power is scheduled to be out between 2 and 8 a.m.) I won’t be too broken up about it.
