The electricity went out.....

The electricity on our block went out for 19 hours. During those 19 hours I actually survived. I recorded in a journal the events that unfolded. And I want to share it with you all.

Hour 1

We are all confused. I walked out of my house and so did all the neighbors. No electricity. An eerie feeling went through my bones, and the hair on the back of my neck went up. I walked back in my house. No internet. No tv. No computer. No porn. So I walked into my room. Man it was hot. Air conditioner unfortunately...... needed electricity to work. I heard something going on in the neighbors house. I walked over to see the neighbors scrounging in the garbage's for food. For the first time in my life I feel......alone. Like I am the only sane person left in the neighborhood.

Hour 2

I am getting done with my pedicure when I hear somebody knocking on my door. I walked over to the door slowly to increase the dramatic effect. Knocking turned to banging. I grabbed a stick that I found laying on the floor. Then my door went flying open. It seems that the neighbors are going to viciously attack me. I screamed like a little girl and tripped on my shoes. The stick in my hand struck the side of the wall causing it to catch on fire. The fire startled me, and it stopped my neighbors from attacking me. They seemed to be afraid of the fire. So it became my friend. Fire.......my only friend.

Hour 3

Since I cannot microwave my hotpockets I am stuck scrounging for food. I got the drywall on the wall loose and ate it. It is a chalky texture but it fills me up. I look inside the wall and see some cotton candy laying on the inside. So I ate it. To my surprise it was not cotton candy. It was fiberglass which did not fill me up. The fire on my stick went out. I felt lonely again. I lost my friend. Then I looked in my backyard. I saw a vicious group of wolves.....waiting for me to die.....so they could eat my remains......not today.......not.....today.

Hour 4

I look over in the street and I saw my dog  murder a child. I could not believe it. We were.....savage. I went over to see the remains of the small child. I moved the body. However to my relief it was an adult midget. Then the neighbors came wielding their sticks....with fire on them. Fear gripped my veins. Me and my dog ran inside the house to safety. I looked back to see the neighbors gone........as well as the dead midget. I wondered what happened to it. Then out of nowhere the midget attacked me. It was alive. It was a good thing that I can speak midgetenese. I communicated with him. Then he stopped attacking me. We then became allies. I have another friend......but......how long will it last.

Hour 7

I look over to see a mop handle. Then i look in the kitchen and see a knife. I wondered, if I could make some kind of crude spear, I can protect myself. I put them together. I was protected again. But I was hungry. And the damn popcorn needs a microwave to pop the delicious snack. How long.......will I survive. My clothes are stinky and without electricity......I cannot clean the clothes. So I take them off, and I see some towels that I cleaned earlier. I saw the neighbors wrap their towels around their naked bodies. It was some sort of protection form the elements. So I did it as well.  What will happen now.

Hour 10

The neighbors were on my lawn and they talked about a peace treaty. I was curious about it. I talked to them and they told me of their hunger. In the mean time my hunger has increased as well. So we banded together. And we went down the block to hunt some caribou. My spear seemed very sturdy, where as their sticks with fire, intimidating, but weak.

Hour 11

After a friendly fire incident with my spear and the neighbor, left the others thinking that I was the enemy. I tried to explain that when my towel fell off it revealed my male organism. I was embarrassed because of the size, so I bent over to pick it back up and the spear was not meant to pierce the others foot. They took to their side and banished me form the pack. Weak, confused, scared, horny, I walked back home. But I was being followed. It was....the wolves. They chased after me. I got a good head start. But because of my speed and the wind resistance, my protection towel came off. But there was no time to pick it up. If I did...I would have surly died.

Hour 14

I am in the yard of the others and I am naked. I have a feeling of anger for the others. It seems that a primal force has awakened inside of me. It is clawing its way out of me. But the feeling came to be physical. Something really did feel like it was crawling its way out of me. I had to go.......number 2.

Hour 14 1/2

After defecating a large amount of blood form the fiberglass I knew that I needed to see the witch doctor. I stumbled upon what looked like Milk Duds. But when I ate them, they did not taste like Milk Dudes. But then I loud flying silver bird flew overhead. The sound scared me, and I had an urgency of hate as well. Then I realized. It was a plane. How come I am like this, naked in my neighbors yard scrounging for food. Then I saw the witch doctor. I walked over to be healed of the deadly flesh eating cotton candy. I pass out...I remember nothing.

Hour 18

I awake to the sound of a man. And the feeling of ...nothing. I awoke to see a man like no other man. He wore a black uniform, with a shiny medallion on his left side of his chest. He spoke in a language, a language that I once knew. His name was police officer. I thought that was an odd name. He told me of a charge. Was it an animal charge? Then he said something of a 'public indecency'. I had no idea what he was talking about. Then police officer was attacked by the neighbors. I used that time to get away. But for my luck, my fortress was 13 feet away. So I got inside and told the midget of my travels. Then we translated that into a painting on the wall that held the flesh eating cotton candy.

Hour 19

Death.......I felt it........it was.......there. I did not know why but it felt.....inviting....calming. I thought about the time when I was born. Then I realized that I did not know because I was too young to know about that. Then.................all of a sudden........................................................................................light. It was beautiful. The sound box made sounds of the heavens. And the oven....................a majestic 400 degrees. It was......................back..................the electricity. Then I turned on my computer....................................porn.
