This blog post was written early Saturday morning on my laptop with very little battery juice. The power was knocked out at my house in the middle of the night Friday and it has yet to be restored. A tree fell on the line that leads to my house and blew a hole in the meter joint. (Pictures to be downloaded tonight.) I had an electrician come by yesterday late afternoon to tell me there was nothing he could do until this morning. But that wasn’t the bad news. Due to the age of my home, none of the wiring is up to code. So….my mom is having knee replacement surgery tomorrow morning and will be in extended care for a week to ten days. The spawn and I will be crashing at her place until the wiring is done at our house.
Fay……you’re a bitch!
So this is what I woke up to this morning.
But weirder still, half of my house has electricity and half of my house does not. I had electricity throughout the house when I woke up this morning a little before 7:00. But as I sat here downloading pictures to share with you guys, the lights flickered, I heard a that well know BOOM of a breaker box blowing up in the distance and BAM, no electricity for the master bath, bedroom, and half of my kitchen. Half of my kitchen??? What the hell is up with that? At least the half of the kitchen that has electricity is the half that my coffee pot and TV are on.
So now I sit and wait for Mr. Electricity Man to show up at my house and cut the tree away from the line so that he can reattach the wires to the house. I’m thinking maybe Mr. Man should hurry as branches are falling from the trees into my yard and crashing onto the roof. It’s kinda freaking me out a tad.
Hope he’s hot; maybe I’ll tell him he has a nice ass if he is.
Pulling the night shift tonight and tomorrow night so I still won’t be around much. You’d think people that live in Florida would prepare themselves for hurricane season. THIS IS FLORIDA PEOPLE – DO YOUR HOMEWORK BEFORE MOVING DOWN HERE!

I hear disasters always bring out the hot guys ... good luck with that queen goob.
I hate hurricanes... Miami Hurricanes and tropical storms too.
Don't forget my chicken your next trip to the Publix.
Sorry to hear about your electricity. Hope things are up and running again soon.
And here's to hoping your mom's surgery goes well and she makes a speedy recovery.
You should live in Northern Nevada. Nothing happens there. Nothing. Ok, I guess Burning Man shows up annually...
Hey!!! Are you okay???
Ack! I suppose the fact that my children have been grumpy and demanding ever since I got home from work and is about to drive me to committe murder is miniscule compared to your wiring issues. Hope the lights are back on soon. But I also hope that the lights aren't on when nobodies home. BWAHHHH
Oh no- are you in Gustov's path??? I'm watching Fox news like an addict - and all the way up in PA. Hope you're safe!
