I am having first world problems today and it's been comical. I was finally childless and so was set to have a lovely day here at home doing whatever. Ahh yes a nice warm bath will start this off right... *insert power outage here* Okay, so I deal with that for a while no problem when suddenly the power is back on.... So I get in the tub ahhh so warm and nice.... And the power gose out! So then I was in the dark. I was in there till the water was cold but since I couldnt see I got out without enjoyibg it at all and as soon as I got dry....Power is back on... fuck!!! dangit!! lol
sorry to hear that, that sounds really awful i always forget and use fabric softener on my towels, so they aren't great at drying me and i'm always cold after a hot shower in the winter
I usually hate when the power goes out, but sometimes it's nice just to light a bunch of candles and read in the dark.
When I soak in the bath, I always turn off the lights and light candles. It makes the atmosphere so much more relaxing.
well the electric is attached to the hot water. also I had food to cook for a party...so not good timing
Bummer! I've lived off the grid for a few years now and it was not until recently that I appreciated mains electricity. I visited a friend and used his kitchen to cook for a small reunion gathering. It's not until it becomes a luxury do you realise how cool it is to use all that power!! Fortunately with my simple day-to-day living my light/cooking/water are not all entwined.......I can imagine your 1st World Pain
I'm off the grid. I generate power wherever I am. There is one world and you can do with it as you will.
At this moment I can't be "off the grid" as I share a child with someone an hold down a regular job and another illustration job. Choices yes. Sacrifices of my own will so my son can go to a really cool school which costs $ because it isn't government funded. A co op. but priceless.
There was nothing on the long menu list in the large canteen at work today suitable for me... I had to walk down to the corner shop Then when I got back, I realised I had forgotten a fork, so couldn't eat the noodles... I just had to snack on cheesy things, a pastry & stroop waffels... I wanted noooooooodles!!!
No accusations here friend. Whine away. Just my way of whining. I have a six year old going to public school living with me. He is very happy.
At desk, wearing suit... didn't want to make a mess or make my co-workers look at me funny so soon... they haven't figured out quite how much of a nut-job i am yet Just did some googling... turns out I live about 5-10 minute walk from the lab that first discovered LSD... either that, or just the company's hq - can't tell, lol!
Maybe that level of confusion caused you to forget your fork. Our moments interest distract us from a larger more enduring perspective.
I'm most likely going to have to hire a crane to put the hot tub where I want it. Maybe I need to rethink the placement
It happens alot here lately that the power goes off... its been usually late at the evening too and I've been in the tub three times and it has been AWFUL AS HELL... mostly bcuz I'm extremly scared of the dark.
