Only me...

I got 2.5 hours of sleep last night. Well...to be honest, there may have been another hour in there but it definitely wasn't continuous. I was reading a great book (Nineteen Minutes by Jodi Picoult) until midnightish. Around 2:30am, the power went out. Because my smoke detectors are connected to the wiring, they beep when they go onto battery power. They beep again when the power comes back on. Loudly. Right outside my bedroom door.

The power must have come on and off at least 4 times. Meaning, the beeping pattern happened at least 4 times. The power crew was working on the problem. I know because I could hear them...for 5 hours. Who can't sleep through a blackout in the middle of the night?!? Only me.
