Elieson Posted August 15, 2012 Author Share Posted August 15, 2012 Yea. Currently on hold, fighting over my $280 deposit that they are saying I never paid (last year). Some dad this makes me look like. :/ If I'm pissy or bouncy today, let it be known that this is why. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elieson Posted August 15, 2012 Author Share Posted August 15, 2012 Daughter is at school (daycare), per normal. Son is with me at work, milking WIFI, so all should work. I managed to get enough $ together to play catchup and electricity should be on sometime today. It's approx 97° right now...my poor baking house :( i'l have to check back later and kick on the AC so my house isn't a furnace for the kids tonight.

Elieson Posted August 15, 2012 Author Share Posted August 15, 2012 Aand...nothing :(. I managed to set up the inside with enough shade to render a 74° in the house, which isn't bad. Refrigeration is holding fine so far, too, and power company says 4~5 hrs max (they also said 6 hrs ago it'd be back up, but yea). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elieson Posted August 16, 2012 Author Share Posted August 16, 2012 7:42am. Lost power. 7:16pm. Son imitates He-man with his Nerf sword, shouting "I have the POWER!" 7:17pm. Son strikes the Nintendo64 by accident with his Nerf sword, somehow triggering the reactivation of our electricity. 7:20pm. Son returns from outside, short of breath from repeatedly shouting "I /AM/ He-Man!" to our various hispanic neighbors. I now have Elecricity Insurance, in the form of a 10 year old boy. Power being shut off is now no longer a fear of mine. Best conclusion to a bad day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
