Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
how long is a few hours?
Well, the power went out at 8:00 Monday morning, and I kept the door closed all day Monday and only opened it briefly a few times on Tuesday afternoon. The last time I went in there was probably late afternoon, and I noticed any lingering coolness was gone by then. Power came back on at 10:40 that evening, so all told, it was at room temp for no more than 6 hours.
If they've been in the fridge (and not sitting out on the counter), I'd maybe rinse them off and just make sure that they're heated through, but otherwise not worry.
Pepco is, indeed, the most hated company in America. People hate them more than Comcast. I haven't had problems - the lines in my area are underground - but it's been bad. Power goes out at the least little thing and stays out for a long time. And Pepco just can't or won't communicate, will say that the power's on as people sit in their cold, dark houses. The .. utility board? someone ... is saying that they're going to start fining Pepco for unacceptable "service". Pepco is now saying that if people want improved service, it's going to cost more.
And, just for the irony of it, the power went out last night - in the middle of a major heat wave - because of the heat. One of the houses that was affected was the mayor's ... think that'll have an effect?
In the week of continuing suckiness for my office: the a/c isn't working - not since the power went out on Monday. Apparently, their is a broken engine or motor or something which they don't think that they have on hand.
There is a box fan in the hallway.
Yeah, that'll do it.
Person A: I think it is ok
Person B: Of course you are welcome
Invitation received from Person B
Person A, acting on a comment from Persons C and D: It would be better if you don't come.
Whatthefuckever.
awww ... baby screech owls - all eyes and fluff (warning - music starts right away)
SUzi, I am confused, but it sounds sucky. As does the no AC thing, sumi. I would die without it at work, where I cannot be naked.
I am cleaning my livingroom, and I really wish my cat would stop peeing on things. Really and a lot. I have to do at least 7 loads of cat pee stuff.
Congratulations, JZ!
I'm waiting for tile guys. Again. It's a lot like waiting for Godot.
