Whole Day Black Out!

I guess I gotta spend the whole day in the mall, after attending mass. Other than the extreme heat without air conditioning, I don't really mind it that much. Have you experienced this before? What did you do to fight the boredom?

I am Jewish and on our Sabbath the lights went out for awhile and I went back to bed because no point in waking up to the dark and when I got up again we had electricity. I did not have to worry if I had to eat cold food or not. On our Sabbath we use something that heats our food because we are not suppose to cook on it. We had a bad storm and it was in winter once and all the lights went out and it was very cold. Our apartments in winter are cold and it is cold outside too here in Israel. There were people without water and no phone service either and my cat and I had to find a way to keep as warm as we could and to ride it out till the lights went back on.

Are you really bored ? I really don ' t know a person who is . There are some states of mind that happen to people , but I don ' t know if they are the real ones we really speak about .

I think you misunderstand me sir. The word boredom I used in my post refers to what people commonly feels whenever there is no electricity, not specifically me. That's why I said I don't really mind the black out, it's the absence of air conditioning that bothers me.

@Jaff1978 Well, I fixed the problem by going to the mall and drinking some cold drinks.

@JeeyanDee . Then it has to be very hot in where you live ? I am also personnally from a hot country and it is true that the heat is difficult to support .

Is there an all day blackout? Just in your town or city?

Just my town. It's for their monthly maintenance I think.

I have not experienced a full day blackout. It usually lasts a couple of hours due to maintenance issues.

Well, here in my place, they ask for about 12 hours black out for their maintenance.
