power cut weirdness

Had a power-cut last night from around 11pm to midnight. From less than halfway down the long main street that I live on to as far as I could see into town. It never ceases to amaze me how little people seem to care or pay attention because once again, I was the only one out with a torch to investigate why the lights had gone out... same case with the earthquake late at night some years back. Heh. (Although at that time, I seriously thought a lamppost had fallen and hit the block, because it was a wildly windy night that that happened on.)

Anyway, yeah. Candles for half an hour or so, until I couldn't be bothered anymore and went to sleep. Then all the power came back and everyone's alarms blared out for about 15 minutes, so I woke up again at that point.

The weird thing is I was sat attempting to meditate and mainly dozing off just before the power went down. I had the strong impression of a voice or perhaps just a very clear thought saying "it's going to go dark", then I opened my eyes and a moment later all the lights went out.
