The power company website says we will get our power back by 11 tonight but I don’t believe it. There are tons of downed trees and wires all around here and it’s going to take them several more days to get to everything.
Nothing induces (short-lived) euphoria like a little cold shock after a nice sauna, a steam bath, or a hot ride, but your situation sounds pretty unpleasant.
