On or Off?

With this year's Earth Hour behind us, it's now time to be introspective.
Okay, not really. I just thought it might make a mildly interesting post.
Did you participate in this year's global switch off?
I'm not going to lie, I honestly didn't feel like switching off anything. The enthusiasm I had for the day last year was missing this year.
Despite my apathy, I did what had to be done. 
My enthusiasm might be gone, but my conscience is still there.
I would have felt terribly guilty had I sat through the hour with everything switched on, especially since my neighborhood was as dark as the darkest woods.
I spent Earth Hour sitting in our family room, with a candle for light, and a laptop that's screen seemed to burn holes in my eyes with its suddenly abnormally intense light.
In case you're wondering, it was on battery power. 
In my understanding that's alright, unless any of you tell me otherwise of course. Then I'll have to bother finding out properly.
I did consider making use of the hour by taking a shower, but I wasn't sure how I'd be able to do that in the dark without breaking at least a few significant bones. I opted to stay in my pajamas, eat a few Oreos, and tinker around on my laptop.
How did you spend Earth Hour? Where were you? And what did you do to contribute?
Do tell, because I'd love to know!
More later,
