@AustinHSEM@NWSSanAntonio My power has been out for four hours. I have been reporting it repeatedly and the automated outage reporting function keeps telling me there is no outage. I want to speak to a human.
see because like, it's the fall harvest, and all the farm guys want their cornucopia and instead of a horn of plenty here's this guy with like, copies of horns.
You know, I always believed that laughter was the best medicine. But I also discovered that medicine is generally a poor substitute for laughter. Anyway, it was a weird day at the hospital and I probably shouldn't go back there.
who am i.
jasmine on instagram: i will post a carefully edited and skillfully captioned glamour shot selfie and my mystique is secured for another day.
jasmine on twitter: so I think if I eat a banana between every beer I can just drink indefinitely.
@AustinWater No water since about 10am in 78759. Waited on hold for about 40 minutes, somehow other customers on hold kept clicking on, but no reps. Why won't you tell us what's really happening? Are you trying to outdo Austin Energy for most catastrophically inept disaster response?
@austintexasgov@AustinWater Anyone else in 78759 without water? We'd been dripping the faucets so I don't think our pipes froze but water pressure vanished completely this morning and @AustinWater left me on hold forever.
@thisisminnow@austinenergy mhm. what a brilliant literary gambit you've executed, I have tumbled headfirst into your hyperbole snare trip. now that I am your captive, have you any further mansplainations with which to put me in my place?
@thisisminnow@austinenergy not every home in Austin is currently without power? oh brilliant insight. don't waste your time here with me, go share your wisdom with the world. go. go.
@austinenergy So after over ten hours of outage with basically no communication, the power came back on at Barrington in 78759 for three hours and now it's out again. Awesome.
@austinenergy I'm appreciative to have an update, and I get the work takes time, but I absolutely do not appreciate that I spent nine hours in the dark before finally getting an update.
@GenTheHobbit I experienced a trauma years ago that sounds like it may have been pretty similar to your experience. I love that it sounds like you found such a healthy and positive way to work your way through it. π
