We spent Friday living in the dark ages, literally, after a big ice storm swept the Northeast US. We drove two hours to purchase a generator, so we could keep our little ones warm (and the pipes from freezing) and kept it humming until last night, when we were back on the grid.
Froop posted a picture of one of the big limbs that knocked out our power (and phone and cable) lines on facebook.
One good thing that came of it all: not being able to function without email, we were *forced* to buy g phones - something I've been begging for as long as they've been out.
This morning cable was hooked up, so I'm back to more conventional means of getting online, and now we are just waiting for phone. Lots of fun and a fantastic waste of a weekend (plus 2).

Yeah, sorry about that. I'm all about the HTML at the moment, so my UBB's a little weak. Back to the good old days of table based layouts. None of this fancy XHTML you see. Chrissakes...
Just thought that some of the forumites on here probably liked hip hop and lego and that sort of stuff.
My mother returned from a cruise along the Nile last night, singing the praises of the lovely tour guide called Sharif. Seeing as I don't do holidays, she always insists on bringing me gifts when she goes away. This time she bought me some kind of two-stringed instrument that's apparently made from various animals including crocodile, horse, etc. I managed to get a not altogether unpleasant sound out of it after about an hour's practise. So I think this will mark a dramatic turning point in The Interloper Sound. Hope you don't mind too much, Mikee. Oh yeah, and a Fez. Nice one mum.

I'm starting to feel a hangover. I was ok this morning, but the goblins are trying to get in. It's not too bad though. Just a mild one. I can shirk it off easily. It was the works do last night. Suprisingly quite good. It was the usual affair. Lots of ego wanking going on. I did like a moment when a girl came over to us while we were queuing for the dodgems and started yabbering about sales and this dude who I'd never met before said 'We don't give a fuck about sales, because we're in IT' Silence filled the air. Then the best thing happened. She looked really, sort of crestfallen, except she almost stumbled over backwards. From standing. Her legs buckled and someone went to catch her. It was like she'd been told for the first time in her life that someone wasn't interested in what she was saying and it knocked her off her feet.
