We lost power twice last night. As I type, it's out a third (or fourth?) time. I can stay online because the cable modem and Airport base station are on a UPS in the basement, and I'm using my laptop. Yay batteries.

Of course, our water pump is electric, so I can't bathe and go to work until we have power again...

Yeah, pity it came back not long after posting that. 8)

Also, we were out of power most of the night, too, so the UPS keeping the cable modem and Airport alive died right after I posted that....

Wheeeee. Do you guys usually lose power a lot?

I've heard that WSH (West Street House) loses power, and their net connection, if someone sneezes. Sounds like an exciting place to work.

Eh. Not hugely often. And usually not for long stretches when we do. This time it was downed wires on our road.
