  • Woke up with no power!

    Talk about a little freaked out at 6:45am when I get up and our power is out. The whole neighborhood was out, not sure how long but luckily it came back on shortly after I woke up. On the coldest day in 15 years I do not want this to happen.

      You remember the stories John use to tell us about the the three chinamen playing Fantan? This guy runs up to them and says, "Hey, the world's coming to an end!" and the first one says, "Well, I best go to the mission and pray," and the second one says, "Well, hell, I'm gonna go and buy me a case of Mezcal and six whores," and the third one says "Well, I'm gonna finish the game." I shall finish the game, Doc.

          Apparently not all of Lake Dallas. I haven't been hit yet... *fingers crossed*

          I've got the propane heater ready... just in case.

                  It's state-wide.

                              Out West too... (Abilene)

                              My apartment complex apparently lost power around 3 - I finally heard my UPS chriping around 630 and the realized that I was fucking freezing.
                              Min is an outage, not an intentional blackout... The complex next to mine still had power.

                              I came to my office to get warm.
                              .
