...and now I have Priceline remorse. I should have gone cheaper! And the place I got is on the wrong end of the neighborhood. Eh. No big whoop, really.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

So they've implemented electric load reduction here at work. Whee?

They have a brownout at our other Chicago office, two weeks after they had to turn off the water for a few hours. I'm glad we're not having the same issues here, but feel bad for my coworkers who are working out of that office today. Oh, well, they can both work from home if they have to.

- Has anyone ever brought a Samsonite suitcase back for repair? I have no idea if it's under warranty, but the store is convenient, so it seems worth a shot
I have. I had to pay $15 or so for shipping, but it came back good as new.

OK, that sounds well worth it to me, given that the Samsonite store is more convenient than the luggage repair places I googled up.

I have been keeping all of our lights off due to brownout/blackout fears. I will not turn off the A/C though.

Work remotely tomorrow. From Bob's awesome hospital room! Free consistent AC AND free wireless! And a nice view.

A Samsonite store might be even cheaper, I went back to the luggage store that I had purchased it from.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Oh god, today has kicked my ass to the point where I haven't had breakfast yet. And I have a meeting in fifteen minutes. And another at 5pm. And dinner with an out of town friend at 8. I am really not in love with the day, in any way. It's just...I'm glad I work with nice people. It could have been so much worse.

I now have 26 ebay auctions up. 7 are selling, hope that number goes up by bedtime. And yes, I still have more than 10 things to list.
