ragtag

6:24am

i woke up to a hot stuffy apartment and immediately noticed that my personal fan wasn't blowing......i tried the tv. nothing.

shit.

my power is off. i look outside and my neighbors have their outside lights on.

shit.

so it's not a power outage. dammit. they turned my power off. so i go off lookin gfor aps' number on an old statement but after stumbling around blindly for a half an hour i give up and go out to my mail to see if a statement came there. but since i never check my mail they are holding it all hostage at the post office.

shit.

so i have to call friggin 411 to get the reconnect power back phone number. commence with tortuous hold music that keeps fading in and out. 15 minutes later the customer service rep comes online. after essential information is exchanged she informs me that i do not have a balance.

shit.

so what is this? a local power outage just to make me personally miserable?

as it turns out. it wasn't anything quite that exclusive.
apparantely, justin (my cat) had been playing with the spike strip power bar while i slept and i just didn't bother to check the main lights. hah!

so all that drama just to realize that my friggin cat pulls one cord loose. what a way to start the day eh?!

anyways. last night jin and i took the bus downtown and checked out the galleries, listened to a really talented musician (listdening to his cd right now) over a somewhat disappointing ceasar salad, and walked walked walked!

ARE YOU GOING TO PAY FOR IT?!
oiy.
