I don't have a problem with their rule, I just wish it started tomorrow.
I found it odd that they never thought it out further than they did, or alerted Gaurdian (the inspection service for the tri-county area they serve) that they'd need to have an inspector on-call from here on out.
Someone's gonna get tore up tomorrow. Penelec's linemen didn't even know of the new rule until they arrived to hook up the service and recieved a call from main office.
The linemen are pissed, my renter's steamed, the guy who owns the inspection service is torqued, and so is the contractor that did the job for me. They're already lighting up the switchboard.

I'm okay with all of it, Hugh.
It is what it is. If I get upset or lose my patience, then I'm gonna be miserable. It's not worth it. Being miserable sure ain't gonna pay the bill.
I am dead tired though.
My back's shot, the house is in disarray from yesterday's disaster, and I have a full dance card tomorrow.

On a positive note, I got the new countertops today to undo disaster #1 and lo and behold, THEY MATCH!!!
Sofaman just called and we made a date to smoke a couple of the DPG Firecrackers tomorrow when he gets off work.
And...
When I was at Lowe's I got a nice Dewalt Jigsaw and they had a 9volt Dewalt cordless on sale that I've been eyeing up for months. I grabbed it, too. It's ideal for drilling all the little stuff I drill out in the shop. I'm gonna love it.

Thanks for the passage, my brother.
It's one of my favorites and there's nothing truer.
The way I feel right now is proof positive.
