I then saw a sight that will traumatize me for the rest of my life. O.o... My dad had taken off all his clothes, butt naked... ::shivers in horror:: I never want to see that again...
I went downstairs and drank some water... nasty water too... mum had put some in a container. Not that we couldn't get any water from the pipes or anything. Those worked just fine (well, there wasn't much water pressure but it still worked, so who am I to complain about that?) My dad came down a little while later and had breakfast. Since my stomach started to get queasy I grabbed something to eat (I get sick of I don't eat something when I get up)
My dad then decides to drag out the old generator... I'd say it's about 50 or more pounds. Imagine having that weight dropped on your big toe. Painful, yes? Well tell that to my bleeding toe!!! O.o... And guess what, soon as dad has it going and started to plug stuff in? The power comes back on. My toe was injured for nothing!!! ::growls angrily::
Not to mention last night was just damned freaky. Looking out the window, and it was a sort of weird unnatural darkness. I could see just fine and I shouldn't have been able to. Also there was assholes out there walking around and talking loudly. Fuckers. I'll kill them.
Anyways, we needed to get some groceries, so we went out. Big fucking ass mistake. Meijers was freaking packed, not to mention creepy with the emergency lights and crap... O.o... We grabbed very little since we couldn't get a cart. Too many people for that. We should have grabbed one from outside. But the worst part of that whole thing. I needed money from the bank. I need it for tomorrow and all the banks are closed. They didn't have any power to be open. I'm am so fucking pissed off right now. Urgh.... o.o...
So unless my dad has some hidden away, I doubt if I'll have much money tomorrow... and I'm not fucking happy about this shit. Black outs are not my friend right now... this is the worst possible time it could happen and I will curse it for the rest of it's damned life.... If it were a person I'd shoot it in it's fucking face repeatedly...
A good time for a black out would probably be during Fall or Early Spring when it's not to hot and not to cold. That'd be perfect. That way you could just open a window and be comfortable during the night. Sleep good. ^_^
