An Overdue Update

Hi all,

Another belated post... You'd think I'd keep better records on my pathetic life. ::snickers:: I've been busy with work, friends, webcomics I am addicted to, and trying to stay cool in the horrid heat wave we had.

Yep, big MASSIVE early summer storm rolls through. Reported tornadoes, huge number of people without power, blah, blah, blah. Er... I get home to a dark house... my laptop dead... my cat freaking out... and the food in my refrigerator slowly going bad. Joy. One hot stuffy night of poor sleep finds... a dark morning without power... Luckily my water is gas heated so I did have a hot shower in the dim morning light that was creeping into the bathroom. Managed to get to work on time too. Thankfully, the power came back on before I got home. My laptop wasn't damaged but I lost everything in the refrigerator. Oh, the freezer stuff made it!

Basically, since then I've been twitching at every storm that passes through.

Oh, short post. Gotta set up lunch.

Our power has gone out with every storm. We have a system now. Storm comes, power goes out. We go to Fuddruckers for dinner, then to Starbucks for coffee and internet. When they toss us out at 10 we go home to a hot sticky house to try to sleep.
joy
It's fun, isn't it?

Yay, we had a storm in June that knocked out my power too. Massive thunderstorm, at night. Wow, the black clouds made it so dark, the only one that could maneuver around here, without knocking her head into this and that, was The Empress. Came back after about 20 - 30 minutes, though. So nothing was damaged.

Also, Blogspot have been giving me trouble as I haven't been able to get to this page in weeks. Finally, today there were no errors.

Oh ShadowRider; wanna come play over on Live Spaces with Kiri and me?
