Oh god, 32 hours without power! >:(( (I think we've had a power outage that lasted longer than one day, back in the absolutely crazy storms of 1995(-ish?), but that was about it.) Sounds like you found ways to have fun, though -- the Shakespeare play reading/drinking game sounds awesome!
Also, yay, the ASoIAF/HP house poll! I'm amused by how unanimous most of the votes are, with the exception of Martells who are all over the place and Targaryens who we can now confirm as "too crazy to sort" :). Well, yes, and Greyjoy and Tyrell seem to be bimodal, but that actually makes sense. Arryn's hard to sort, since Jon Arryn is dead and little Robert has been so thoroughly screwed up by Lysa that you can't tell what kind of personality is under there. I went with Ravenclaw for pretty much the same reason you mentioned -- the heraldry, mostly, plus it sounds like Jon was supposed to be a pretty bright guy (or at least the only one with any understanding of genetics in Robert's circle...:P)
