wow, y'know, I kind of expected the whole hurricane-thing to be a one-day thing, NOPE!
Oh no, oh god no, it was only the beginning of a really long, long, long week.

For those of you that don't follow me on twitter, the sparknotes go as follows (be prepared, you'll be quizzed on this):
>Dad and his girlfriend have to bunk with me
>Dad and his girlfriend make a mess of my house (I wish they'd wash theIR DISHES BY HADNDFHSJKFHSJDF)
>Power is forcibly cut from my county to synchronize with the mandated curfew
>Power is turned back on the next day when curfew is lifted, but a transformer explodes
>Days go by without power or water
>I bunked with a friend
>Came back home to dirty dishes and no Internet, but the power and water worked
>Paid Internet bill, still not working
>Paid Internet bill AGAIN, still not working
>Got a false diagnostic that my modem needed to be replaced
>Technician didn't come for the appointment the next day
>Technician comes the day after, and it turns out my modem is fine, I was just the only one disconnected from the Internet in my area

I FINALLY have everything back to normal - working electricity, water, Internet, my dishes are clean, and my family is out of my house. WHEW, WHAT A WEEK.

I'm super glad to be back on here. @^@ Sorry for the possibly-overly-venty journal, but it's all I could think of to bring my non-twitter followers up to speed on where I've been and what I was going through.
