I like thunderstorms. I love them really, but I hate my neighbourhood. Any time thre is a thunderstorm, large or small, the power flickers. It's never anything so serious as a tree falling on the lines, just a little blink off, then on again and everything's fine.
Well, not everything.
This morning I woke at four thirty. Well, not the real four thirty, but my alarm clock resets to twelve when it looses power. The real time was just after noon meaning 1) Power went out some four and a half hours ago, 2) the clock's battery backup is dead and 3) I MISSED THE SHUTTLE LAUNCH!!! Goddammit! I've been waiting for this for two years and I miss it because the wiring in my neighborhood sucks.
Current Mood: total misanthropy
Current Music: Low quality video of Discovery's launch
