So it’s begun. I’m out of my apartment now, apparently, as I have no use for a unit without power. Two nights ago I dyed my hair and noticed there was no hot water, but that happens sometimes. In the morning it was the same way (but I had power during this time). Yesterday the power went out in parts of town, including our office, so I worked at waterstreet until 10:30pm. I needed a shower because I hadn’t taken one in days, so I tried my apartment again and the power is completely out.

Unrelated to the power outage in the city, more directly related to the fact that I hadn’t paid the bill. Probably. Except I don’t remember getting a shut off notice. I didn’t, however, pay the $189 they balance forwarded from my old apartment that my old roommate was to pay. I refuse to pay it. They told me if I didn’t pay it, they’d shut off my power (and they have). Either way, I will pay the rest of the bill, which is about $100, and call it good. I wish I had power to at least vacuum my floor before I move out, but oh well.

So last night I showered at Bethani’s house and then spent an additional 45 minutes to an hour trying to find a place I could park and get internet (with no luck, so I had to cancel my Skype date with Tash and we talked on the phone for almost 2 hours instead).
