Calm the anxiety, we have some indoor ideas to keep you occupied even if the lights go out...
Breakout the Boardgames
Remember when you were young and a new boardgame would keep you busy for an entire afternoon? We'll this throw back activity is sure to awaken your inner child and keep you entertained the old fashioned way. If you are playing with: finance colleagues, we recommend Monopoly...girl friends --> Pictionary...mixed group --> Scrabble. These classic games can be a reality check--or just a fun time.

Check back every few hours and we'll continue to update as we come up with good ideas, or just add your own in the comments section.
