Thank you for your kind words. Sorry for the Captain's Obvious a bit rude comment. It just happened that me and my partner were battling traffic using rickety road through the hills above the Barcelona to get on time for a chemotherapy session. Just to be told that due to the blackout it must be postponed for a few days. Luckily nothing serious in the long run, but nevertheless rather annoying. Because of the traffic jams and lack of mobile coverage for many hours in various locations in Spain I am quite sure there were some extra fatalities.
Thinking about it, there is nothing wrong writing about unexpected pleasures of that day. Just that we keep in mind the fact that blackouts have this non-hipstery, rather serious aspects.
PS I am doing ok-eish, splendid even considering the initial diagnosis (pancreatic cancer 1b stage diagnosed in December 2024). Maybe still way too touchy about some topic apparently triggering me.
