Now the city is saying it could be up to 3 or 4 days without electricity. So no heat (!!!) and there goes my mom's excellent Christmas dinner plans (no gas stove). No movies or TV for Xmas shows, no Internet (I am using a 3G data stick), and no electricity for Christmas... Argh.
My computer is running on battery now but it's almost dead. Catch ya later, while I try to stay warm.

What a ****ty ****ing Christmas!
In other news, it was almost up to 70 degrees F tonight and it rained most of the day.
People were outside wilding out because of how warm it was.
