i ran out to cvs for a minute tonight. there was a pretty big storm moving through. when i came out of cvs, which is on the corner of a pretty major intersection, something looked weird. the entire block across the street was completely black - the electricity had gone out. it was kind of weird to see such a bright part of the city all dark. then we turned the corner to head home, and realized the electricity was out at walgreen’s as well as shoney’s.

this made me think…

what happens when the electricity goes out at shoney’s? do you keep eating? if you are at the buffet, do you keep ladeling that gravy over your potatoes? do you finish off that last little bit of meatloaf? i’m just wondering. anyway, i just wanted to report that there’s a pretty good chance that some fried chicken, meatloaf and gravy were all consumed in the dark in west nashville tonight.
