Oh dear

Written at 9:38 am. Posted 2:34 am (simply because I worked a double)

Last night around 1:30 I noticed that the internet was acting up, but I was really tired and didn't really think anything of it. Once I woke up around 9, I noticed I couldn't do anything. Cable wasn't working either. I swear, this happens once to twice a month in this house. I know Daylan said his bills were due around the first of the month, but did he just not pay for last month? Is that why they shut it off the second day of the month? In his defense, this does happen a lot and not just with the cable. It can be a sunny day outside but if the wind is blowing hard, then the power goes off. That happens a lot.

Reason number 1,664 I want to leave this god forsaken place.

However Daylan is notorious for telling me after I send him a text that he has to go to the store after work and pay the bill. Ha, speaking of the devil, he just sent me a text as I started to write all this saying "I'll stop by to pay it and I'm taking the dvr in the bedroom back since it never worked."

Well at least it's not the power. I forgot to charge my phone last night and had the power gone out, my "sleep in" alarm clock would have never gone off. Sleeping in is 9:30. I am normally awake by 8. With how often we lose power on a random occasion, that would suck. It especially sucks when on the rare occasion it rains we lose power. That happened the last two times it rained. Once was at night. I need power to charge my phone and we need power so the stuff in the fridge doesn't spoil. I woke up to rain and once again, no power. Oh let's not forget how I don't have cell phone reception in the lake house but I do when I get off Red Bluff Rd and get on Knickerbocker (one of the main roads in town which is five minutes away from the house).

Reason number 1,527.

What place loses power everytime it rains or gets windy?
