Whoa, again
Dec. 29th, 2006 09:05 amJust before 10pm, the power flickered wildly for a minute or so, and then died again. This time it stayed out for about 90 minutes. I gave up and went to bed fairly early on, but I was still awake when it came back. If it died again overnight, I wouldn't know. (Battery-backed clock radios are a Good Thing.)
[edit] And shortly after I posted that, the cable light on the modem went out. I got it back after a few power-cycles, though. Let's hope it was just the modem taking belated exception to the rude interruptions earlier. (At least I have a spare modem now, though reinstalling it would involve dealing with the Nice Young Men again, and I'm not sure I want to do that for a while.)
