It's the End of the World...?

Last night, while my brother Erik and I were in the middle of watching "Office Space" when suddenly all electricity turned off and fire alarms began beeping. Many residents of University Springs walked angrily from their own apartment and began smoking, drove away somewhere else, or called others to see what the extent of the damage could be. Having attempted the latter and failing miserably (after calling Sean, who had nearly reached Piney Woods, and Morgan, who did not answer and called back about an hour later - after the electricity was restored), my brother and I decided to take a walk. After nearing the Shell station and discussing the similarities of our experience and "War of the Worlds", Erik decides we should turn around. As we begin to ascend the stairs to my apartment the lights turn on, and I scream loud enough for the boys who were smoking nearby to hear. We finished "Office Space" and fell asleep to "The Fast and the Furious." A night to remember, indeed.
