Well I just got my electricity back after 2 days without it. That may sound like so trivial, but holy acorns the BOREDOM was so intense!! About to make a death bribe to pse&g saying to give my power back or I'll kill myself lol.

So who's with me!? Who is dealing with no power still or just got it back? I know of 2 others, but who else!?

I have those weird things here that operate without electricity.I think they are called bogs or buuks or books........... might want to try also one day.



I live super far away from that but my house constantly lost power so I feel your pain. Lots of board games and sleeping. It is strange though because most things I do actually don't need power but the brain makes you think nothing can happen.

I've had power since yesterday. I didn't have power from Monday night till 6 PM or so Tuesday so it wasn't that bad. Last year was worse. There was a snow storm that wasn't even that bad but it killed all the power lines somehow and I didn't have power for 3 days. That sucked. Besides boredom, no heat is terrible.

My campus hasn't had any power yet and we're off again tomorrow (most places don't seem to have power either). I've had this entire week off so far. I expected MAYBE a day off today on Wednesday, and that's what happened, but no way did I expect a day off tomorrow. And it'd be insane if they still didn't have power by Friday. I've already been off since last Saturday and having a whole week off would be crazy. At best I'll go Friday for two 50 minute classes and that's it.


State? Well for me in nj I got an email today saying no class for the rest of the week! This is cray cray!!!

@riderz13371, people have phones and tablets sir, if they just got to a firends house or store that has wifi!

The first day my whole city was pitch black, lucky you didn't had to deal with no power.
