    Not complaining. I know my life is pretty damn good. Just weird how many times the crazy NW weather has messed with people in my area this year.
    Then move to a place that uses fiber optic networking and in-ground power, wuss.

    Sold out everywhere days before the wind storm. Now people are B&E to steal them.

    Anyways, still no power going on 84 hours. This is really starting to get old.

    Worst vacation ever.

  5. It makes me sad to think of the awesome setup in the photos of your game room going neglected.

    p.s. Hiddy gets my vote for Unknown Hero.

  6. I will be without power until Friday or Saturday "at the earliest" they said.

    I am sleeping in my office at work and spending my days there as well.

    Vacation FTL.

  7. Master of nothing.

  8. This is why you need to live in an area thats used to shitty weather, we have a power company that knows how to fix stuff, fast.

    We havent been without power here for more than a few hours in CT since the massive ice storm in the 70's

    I'm with you man, our power went out at 12:19 am on Thursday in sw seattle/white center area. A pole with a transformer snapped in half as the reason. There is power the next block over. I figure that its because there is so much work, removing old pole, putting new one in, and then hooking up the electricty and phones, that the Seattle Light is taking their damn time.

    If it werent for the wood stove (which we've also been cooking on) I would have gone nuts earlier. Doing puzzles by candle light sucks. I broke down and am staying with family in Renton who have power. I needed to shower in warm water for longer than 2 minutes. I hope you've got a place you can do that in Master.

    Sucks though, no idea when it'll be up. no one I know can recall anything like this happening in their lifetimes. My sister flies in for xmas on the 21st. Yippie. come over to the dark house. My husband flies in on the 23rd. I think we'll end up staying with other family.

    F-ing windstroms.. gah. Anyway master, stay warm and clean.

  10. If we didn't have showers in my building I would go insane. Yeah, my office has pretty much everything I need, including my 360 (now).
