At least it isn't as bad as this.

Lol, ew

I wanted to be job free in 2017 too

Oh well. All good things come to an end eventually.

Now there's about to be a thunderstorm. This one is going to try and be asleep before it gets here so that he will perhaps sleep through it. Night all!

It does, doesn't it?




Oh, well. Had a good run. Got three and a half year's worth of tax returns at least

Well there's that!

Anyway someone must've lied about the thunderstorms. Either that or Khajiit slept through them.

I bet when a storm is approaching, Khajiit sleeps on his head

What the wha?

Khajiit did have a strange dream. He dreamed that he was a crow and he and his brother and sister crows were hanging out in the yard of the house he grew up in. One of them was eating a duck that had died, and the rest of us were just kind of hopping around. Also, the grass was really tall, and upon closer inspection was filled with dead, non-crow birds.

Had a weird Elder Scrolls dream where I was on Vvardenfell while the Red Mountain was erupting. I like these types of dreams.

All our house-Khajiits have always slept on their head whenever rain, snow or other heavy weather is coming. Maybe this Khajiit is different, though

Oooh ok, lol

Well poot! Got an automated call from Entergy just prior to fixing supper. A critical component in our town's substation is failing and must be repaired/replaced pronto. We will be without power beginning at 7pm this evening, with estimated completion by 11pm. So much for a night of gaming and/or the net. I'd just finished a too brief Oblivion session when the call came, and hoped to devote part of the evening to my decrepit avatar and his companions. (They are in the midst of a road patrol to Bravil.)

Drove to the nearest Target and bought two small battery powered lights to see me through the outage. I've been meaning to get one of those for years, but never remember the need until power goes out. Just returned from that trip.

See ya tomorrow <crosses fingers>

Aww man. Khajiit hates power outages! Hurricane Katrina was a high Cat 1/low Cat 2 when it hit where this one lives (Khajiit lives several hours from the Gulf Coast). We were without power for 3 days, and this was a short time compared to some others Khajiit knows.

See you on the other side, Decrepit!

Somehow I get the feeling that Khajiit may be a



Buh-dum-tish


Great. Now I can't listen to Korean or Japanese music anymore

I'm back in action. It's too early to be up for the day, and breaks my Cardinal rule of never turning on the computer before 0330, but what can a fellow do? The outage messed with my already pathetic sleep pattern, so that I nodded off a bit earlier than usual. I got in maybe 3 1/2 to 4 hrs sleep, waking circa 0025 to restored electricity. That being an all too normal amount of shuteye for me, I soon realized I was awake for the duration, like it or not. Until fairly recently I would have read in bed until 0330. Nowadays neck and shoulders pain make it uncomfortable to stay abed any great length of time. So here I am.

(Neck & shoulder pain normally takes some time to become overly annoying. I therefore usually get in a decent reading session before nodding off each evening, and get in shorter sessions throughout the day. But when I wake mornings, after a night's sleep, discomfort can be (but isn't always) too advanced to remain abed long.)

Longest period without electricity for me occurred 2009 (?) following a severe ice storm that hit the night leading into my birthday. Was without power five or six days, in super cold weather. My brother, who lives in a town about 10 miles away, did without several days longer. Some folk, out in the sticks, were without for weeks. What saved me that first day was owning a waterbed at the time. I kept its heat pretty high. That let stay in bed, extra blankets above me, and remain comfortably warm. (This predates neck & shoulder issues.) The situation reversed next day. The mattress lost its heat and became a bed of ice-cold water. I was saved yet again when a then neighbor, leaving to stay with relatives in an unaffected area, let me sleep on a mattress plopped down in front of their generator driven faux living room fireplace. That saw in through the outage. I'd have been OK in any case. As I earned a bit later, my town converted our senior center into a generator powered shelter, with cots for those who needed them, and cheap breakfast, which I availed myself of several times.

Welcome back, Decrepit! Glad your power wasn't out long enough to worry your fridge and such. Also I guess the weather in your neck of the woods is not extreme this time of year. Regardless, glad it wasn't out for too long.

Urgh. Skyrim has been trolling me today. My character uses destruction, alteration, conjuration and heavy armour. Which is why the game gave me novice robes of illusion, restoration, and a minor hide armour of destruction
