Wow yesterday was just fucking bizarre! 
I'm in the shower yesterday when my power goes out. I know that the man I've hired is trimming the ficus in my backyard so I'm thinking that I'm going to find a dead men in my backyard. Jump out of the shower to see smoke coming from my backyard where the tree branch has fallen on the power lines. The man trimming my tree is fine and oddly the power has come back on and now we are waiting for the electric company to show up. I've actually been trying to get the electric company to trim this tree for months and finally just hired someone.
So I see a tree touching the power lines and don't think that much about it and leave my house.
While up the street I see a bunch of fire trucks heading to where I live and smoke rising up into the sky and come home to a fire truck in front of my house and a bunch more up the street.
Go into my backyard and see that they are putting out a fire.
So much for my brand new fence repair. I'm sure that my neighbor isn't very happy either.
Tree trimmer seems to be MIA but his ladder is still in my tree. I'm wondering if he has gone into hiding since he pretty much just about burned down a few houses with the fire that his fallen branch caused. I a have a feeling that the fire department wants to talk to him but really it is our electric company that didn't show up to do something before the fire started. I still have no cable modem but thankfully my ADSL service survived the fire.
Just a day of working for me today. That and continuing my fight with the phone company over charging me for repairs that were not my fault.
So far this week has been like something out of the Twilight Zone.
On a more positive note yesterday FoxyAngel had a party at her place for her singer friend Pepper. The party went well but with all the crap happing at my home I just really couldn't get into the party and ended up mostly in front of her computer chatting with the people on her voyeur cams.
