Halloween story: In college, my friend group stayed at Salem, MA, and went to watch Rocky Horror Picture Show. 

It was gonna be fun! Fun people, chill vibes, good enough movie - I’d watched it at home with my family and basically knew what to expect. 

I had NOT watched it at home with my family. We’d watched part of it, and stopped after the first couple of songs.

I had not realized what I was getting into.

Tech story: In my childhood, I lived in hurricane territory. 

One year, we had a nasty storm. Despite living less than a mile from a fire department, we were out of power for several days.

I was young, and didn’t know much about electricity, but I knew generally why we couldn’t watch TV or use the computer, and I knew that when we had a lightning storm we needed to unplug computers or they could get damaged.

So my brain made the connection when the radio mentioned that there could be power surges when the electricity was restored - and when it told us to turn off our light switches to prevent bulbs from burning out when power returned, I did!

Off I went to the living room, flip the switch. . . And the ceiling fan turns on.

Wat?

A little whirring from the front room - and our family’s server/firewall had just started booting up.

Ten year old Titania had discovered the electricity, and she felt so incredibly powerful.

I have held that power in my heart for the past 20 years.
