Hi everyone, I am in a hotel due to no power at home. Here you have data about flies

Please, if you can, help Snowy!!! https://www.paranetonline.com/index.php/topic,51913.0.html

Good maen all!

Lose power because of the storm Di-Di?

I wish I could help Snow but I can't -_- . I'd move out there and be her roommate if I could, give her stinking landlord a piece of my mind too -_- .

Good maen everyone!

((((((Otlan)))))) I've posted something for you in that thread (the Snowy one)

About my power outage, no, it was not due to the storm. In fact, all the weekend was grey and rainy but not properly stormy  :). No, problem was in a building very close to mine. There was a small explosion and the power was down. They also cut the gas supply there (but not in my building), I am not sure what happened. But about...3 or 4 buildings around "ground zero" there was no power, since Saturday morning until some moment Sunday night. We decided to run Saturday night and it was good, because the water supply was cut some hours later, or so we've been told.

It was a wonderful weekend in a great hotel. My only complain was that I had several TV shows that I was planning to watch and they were on my computer (the desktop one, not the laptop) so I couldn't watch it. But the bed was laaaaaaaaarge and the shower was super good. And breakfast (which was included and we had on Sunday and Monday morning) was abundant and yummy! I like hotels.

That said, being on my own home feels cozier and I was happy to be back-

Hi ya Di-Di n_n .

I already saw and posted. I'm still PO'd that Snow has to go throuvh this BS though -_- . She's good people and dosn't deserve it -_- .

Ahhh, ok. Maby the buildings fuse box blew or something. I'm sorry you didn't get to watch your TV shows Di-Di, but at least you got to stay in a nice Hotel n_n . I've been on my own from Saturday till last night, my mom went back in the hospital. Nothing serious, so far, fingers crossed, and I almost wound up burning my house down -_- .

They say home is were you hang your enimes head at, so there's really no beating it n_n .

Oh! I also got a story idea I want to run by you n_n .

I am hoping all is well with your mom and she is back home soon.
But what did you do with your house?

Also, yes, it was a fun weekend.

And yes, of course, I would like to hear about your story

*flops*  Can't sleep, and this week has been particularly rough with work.  x_x

Yay for getting your house back though Dina!  And eep; best of luck to your mother, Otlan.  ^^;

Long story short, I pluged a two prong plug in a three prong outlet upside down. Scorced, Burnt and melted the plug, luckily I was standing near by and able to yank it out of the wall before it did more damage. And yes, I am an idiot apparently XP .

@Ala and Dina: Thanks guys. She should be fine, she was just haveing Black Colored Stools, which indicates blood, on top of that, her Iron was droping, so the Doc's were worried she might be bleeding internally. They've looked her over but so far have found nothing. They think it might have been caused by the nose bleed she had before that, but they're keeping her for awhile to keep an eye on her just in case.

@Dina: Thanks Di-Di, I'll shoot you a PM with my idea n_n .

@Ala: *Huggles* Sorry you can't sleep and works been rough Amigo. Trying reading a book or listining to music. That's usually what zonks me out XD .

Looks like a weird week, electrically speaking, Otlan. a plug broke in an electricity socket and I didn't notice the metal part sticking out. I touched it and took a nice shock. On the positive side, the crick in my neck is fully healed because of it. Electroshock therapy at its finest :D

Took it out afterwards. I did consider leaving it, for when my leg cramps or some such xD
Heh, no but it was pretty scary (and awesome?) lol

I think I'm a little more sensitive to electricity than most people, if that's possible. You poked a speaker, and you got numb, me, I get that from touching the (very) old PC's metal back. Or even a laptop's usb port.

More like this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2nQfLrDco6g

Sounds to me like your highly conductive Crate O_O. Stay away from anything that gives off a lot of electricty. Like a power plant.

I am so happy you two are well.
And yes, it seems that something was weird with electricity around the Globe  :)
