It's been raining for 3 months. Last Saturday afternoon was a partially nice day, I ran around shopping all morning and into the afternoon. It was also the last day to use the $10.00 Linens N Things coupon that I got in the mail. With the coupon I bought an over the door metal coat rack. When I got home I decided to watch the video, The Ring. It is categorized in the horror genre. I was sitting on my futon, and the the ceiling fan was blowing a nice breeze. It's close to the end of the movie, and I'm getting a bit scared. It's windy outside, but not storming, then there is a bang. I feel like I'm in the movie as everything goes dead, and the fan makes it's last twirl. I sit in a stunned silence. An hour and a half later a drenching storm rolls through. About 5 hrs later my power is restored. I go to put the video in the VCR, but it stops at the same point. Since it is dark I decide to watch it the next day. Sunday I try it again, it stops at the same point. It is broken. I will be buying a replacement soon. I still don't know the ending. Yesterday someone conjectured that this wouldn't have happened with a DVD. Maybe I will buy one.

I must go soon, I don't know when I have been so physically exhausted. I get my workout at work. At least I don't need to pay to go to a gym.
