A power line got knocked down during the rain here in california and my house is out of power.

Any suggestions for what to do?

 

I've already read a book for a while (Huck Finn) and I played my acoustic bass and piano for a little bit.

cry and get extremely bored until power goes back like I would do, or use your phone's data plan to browse the web like you're probably doing right now to write this
