Yes, just a little carol to the local transformers and “jumpers” – whatever they may be – that acted up for several hours last evening. Gosh, darn, I could not use electricity to vacuum or run the washer or the dishwasher or to turn on lights to see to clean up. It was such a hardship. Fortunately, we have a large supply of handy little headlights on elastic bands, so we could make it safely to the food and read our books.
I accidentally picked up a crabmeat cheeseball yesterday instead of shrimp . . . Guess I’ll have to go back today.
Could “jumpers” perhaps be suicidal squirrels that immolate themselves upon the high voltage transformers?
My last power outage was the result of hurricane Ike and the many days without power were enough to last me for a long time. If I hear the noise of a generator any time soon it might send me over the edge… or I might become a jumper myself. 🙂
I’ll take the crabmeat cheeseballs off your hands.
