can you see that orb of light in the middle of the black? that was the lamp in my living room circa monday when i came home from yoga at 9 30 at night. technically, i had power. but not enough to shower by (not that i had the hot water to shower with), or study by, or read by.
so i called the electric company (because the other week, maintenance told me that they don't deal with electricity). they told me they would be "right out."
an hour later i got a call from the electric company saying that i had to talk to maintenance, because they didn't do apartment calls.
so i called maintenance and they told me they would be "right out. but why in the world didn't you call us 2 weeks ago??"
"sir, because my power wasn't an issue 2 weeks ago."
an hour later maintenance showed up. looked in my breaker box thing. tramped down the stairs. tramped back up the stairs and looked in my breaker box. then told me that he couldn't even do anything because he wasn't a licensed electrician.
"....can i at least borrow your flashlight?"
at my next grocery shopping experience, i will be purchasing a flashlight.
UPDATE: i did not purchase said flashlight on said shopping trip. but it is in the plans for the near future.... (i like to leave these things open, in case i forget and need to "take my time")
