Power out all day yesterday. Spent the day reading essays about Sense and Sensibility from last year's JASNA convention, rereading Patrick O'Brian(except the one book I wanted to reread from most, The Ionian Mission, was the one book out of the twenty I couldn't find!), trying to draw my two main characters from my own Austen creation but it didn't go very well(nothing's going well with that series at all. I'd abandon it if I haven't put too much in it already), and in the evening we went out for pizza(and air conditioning). Power finally came back at ten and today I am trying to find out what I missed yesterday. Tonight's newscast is more or less back on schedule, but I suspect it won't be a long one. Am still irritated from the piece published in the Examiner Friday night, was not sorry to not have to think about that at all yesterday.
There seems to be a Wimbledon watchalong happening on my Twitter, but I don't want to ruin my memories from the days of my Paul Bettany obsession. I've got the Tour de France on instead; glad Fabian's in yellow; I've come to realize now I'll love him no matter what. Hope to find a Canadian TV stream this afternoon; I enjoyed watched that too much last year.

With the power out all of yesterday I wondered if I would do this week, and with apparently some people in the area not getting power back until Friday(!) perhaps we might have even missed two weeks, but as it happens, we're more or less unhindered this week: June 25-July 1, 2012
