Power out

Yes i have been without electricity since last Friday night, and here it is Friday again, can't hardly believe it in this day and age to not be able to flip a switch and the lights come on.  The hottest time of the year and can't turn up the a/c, sure would be nice to have some power before the end of the day.  Thankfully some friends got there's back on yesterday so i'm able to come over here and get out of my hot box of an apartment. But then ofcourse like anything it could be worse.
