I share your pain. They should have made that power adapter a little more obvious in the promotional material.
I don't know if it helps you, but I came up with a workaround. Turns out my tv has 2 USB ports, one of which is powered sufficiently to work the fire stick. All i need now is a shorter micro usb cable and I'm in business.
