Boo hiss

We have no electricity in our bedroom. Mind you, this is not a major big-deal problem, more like an annoyance. Or an itch you can't reach. That kind of thing.

Something went *zit* a couple of nights ago when I turned on the tv. A very large *ZIT* noise, actually. Then all the outlets in the room went dead. The ceiling light worked, though. Circuit breaker was fine. Just dead outlets.

Himself tried to change out the box that fried but there is some kind of jinky wiring problem. I don't know who the electrician was that wired this house but they must have been on some pretty good drugs.

I currently have the power strip for my bedside lamp, clock and phone charger on an industrial gauge extension cord. It slightly resembles an orange anaconda, snaking across the hall from the bathroom, through the hallway and into the bedroom.

At least we still have water....





ETA: After 4 or 5 tries, the outlet is now working properly. And, even better, nobody got fried in the process.
