Wondering where I've been, fellow LJ-ers? Well, if you'd only turn on the news -- if you have cable/power -- or logged online -- if you have internet -- then you know that we had a visit from good 'ol gender ambiguous Hurricane Sandy. And she wasn't a very good house guest. Luckily, she didn't trash our house, but somehow she managed to turn off ( Read more... )

I tried it again like zillions of times, so I eventually ( Read more... )

You never really realize how important electricity is until you lose it. Well, that's what happened this morning, when it raining and suddenly the power went out. Of course, seeing as the internet [wireless] wouldn't work, I didn't have anything to do. And as for lunch, we had no choice but to go out -- which was actually fun, because we went to ( Read more... )
