And heat! The house is now a toasty 67 degrees, just an hour after the PSEG guy came and spent ten seconds on top of a pole in our backyard. Five long days later, a quick and anticlimactic fix.

I’m starting to feel like a human being again. We just need to replenish our food supply and it’ll be like the last five days never happened.

After this experience a whole house generator doesn’t seem like such a crazy waste of money anymore. What is crazy is that we are in the 21st century in the United States of America, and our infrastructure sucks.
