We are still waiting for our power to come on five days after it went dark here in Bellevue. Everyone is safe but it's been an adventure, a learning experience, and frankly just a pain in the behind.
One learning experience for my son was the concept of irony. Hanukkah started a day early for us on Thursday, as my Dad was in town. He had been waiting for the Lego Star Wars XBox game for months and had played the demo to the point of mastery.
As we opened presents he quickly found the game and opened it up. He played it for about thirty minutes with me and then the power went out.
Fortunately, he has been busy since then with Snap Circuits and a few books.
And now he knows what irony is!
