I was at home doing my business in the bathroom when the power died.
Eventually I got extremely bored at home with no T.V., radio, lights, computer, etc... that I went to Big's house and we balled and played badminton

I was in Gatineau Quebec when it happened and didn't know about it until I got back to Ottawa. If only I had my radio on and not the CD player I coulda stopped for gas in Quebec and then at FreddySi's place...Instead I spent two hours in traffic that I usually get through in 20 minutes. Then I had to go back out there that night for gas as my car was about to run out...2 hours to go back because everyone in the city was trying to get over there. 40 minutes in line at a gas station...
Got the power back at around 1 in the afternoon Friday and it hasn't gone out since, but they're still calling for Rolling blackouts so it may get cut out again.

My mom lives in a high rise in Toronto and said the view was spectacular. All she could see was the traffic. You could follow it all the way out of the city...she took pics, I'll post them when I get them

I was at work. I thought it was just a local blackout but when my friend called home (across town) it was out at his place too. I was like WTF! I went out to my car and turned on the radio and heard the news. I couldnt believe it! The traffic in front of my work was already building up like crazy. I just decided to kill some time and polish the car until the traffic died down. Driving home was very easy and probably almost faster then usual without waiting for stoplights.

I was in Quebec but had a flight to toronto on friday to see my dad and my flight was delayed 3 hours :<. Driving was chaos I drove my dads Denali and ppl weren't even stopping at intersections just decided to go through them almost got hit by a lil hyundai but he swered out of the way (i think I would have 0wned him anywayz
)
) I was at work supporting an end user from Ancaster, Ontario... while I was talking to her, she told me that the lights just went off and she had to call me back later. Then as soon as I hung up, a co-worker had the same thing happen to his end user but the user was calling from somewhere else, somewhere far from Ancaster.. I knew something was wrong right away. The next thing you know.... ZAPPP!!!! Lights are off in our building... but PC's were still on, generators come on and lights come back. Thinking it would be back to normal in a few minutes, but minutes turned to hours until my shift was done. We stayed DTown until 8:00pm after my 6:30pm shift, chilled at a park and shhhmoked!!
went home and went to a friend's house... and SHHMOKED some mo!
