DC Comics
It s bitterly cold where I am. I am wearing sweats, a heavy coat, a stocking cap and trying to type while wearing gloves, all while listening to my son s umpteenth dissertation on the Indoraptor s ultimate superiority and trying to keep my girls from arguing about their Calico Critters.
I am in my living room.
We ve been without power for a week now, and the five members of my family, plus our myriad dogs, have spent this time huddled around the fireplace, trying to stay warm and not get on each other s last nerve. (It s not working.) All the cacophony of our normally loud house is centered in one room. There is no privacy, no quiet, no space to turn around even. Trying to find the focus to read is next to impossible, and it s only the most engrossing of books that can compete with the noise and make me forget how cold I am.
