Saved by Gmail


Today for the first time we had a 12 hour electricity black out. In the morning I woke up in the dark and figured it must have been the middle of the night. When I walked into the living-room I was welcomed by a flashlight in my face and thought we were getting robbed and this was my last minute on earth. Not to worry, it was my husband who thought it would be a good idea to turn on the flashlight in order to help me on my way to the kitchen. That's when I found out the entire neighborhood was in the dark.

By pure coincidence, or was it Murphy's Law sticking its ugly head out again, I had a quite large translation to submit by 2PM. Not by coincidence I had sent the material already translated to my gmail account before I went to bed the night before. So I spent the day in a cafe finishing my translation. The electricity eventually returned at 1 PM.
