Timing is Everything
Is it Murphy’s Law or some other for of karma that decided that the power outage (17 hours and counting) should occur on Trash day–i.e. my trash went out this morning, while I have a refrigerator/freezer full of food that may now be garbage.
Ugh.
There’s your warning. Avoid my driveway for the next week, cuz that’s where the trash can is.

OMG - I had no idea the power was still off in parts of town. Mine was off about 4 hours last night and that was it. Come on over if you need anything. (unfortunately, my freezer is pretty much full, but the fridge has space)

Yeah, the transformer beside our house blew, (This isn’t the first time, either!) so we were probably the last spot to get power returned.
Grandmom and I went out to dinner, and then spent a couple hours handing out at Barnes & Nobel, and if I’d be thinking clearly, I woulda taken my laptop so I coulda checked the Internet. Since I didn’t, I didn’t see your offer till this morning, but I appreciate the thought!

um, duh — yeah, guess you couldn’t connect without electricity. Next time I’ll call :)

That’s okay, I still appreciate the thought. :)
