Frustration! Sorry, I’m feeling the need to rant. One thing I really hate about Spring in Norfolk, VA is the rain. Especially thunderstorms. It would seem the utility folks in this area don’t find it prudent to run utility wiring underground. Every time there is a thunderstorm in my neighborhood, I intermittently loose my cable connection because my power briefly goes out. When I say briefly, I mean less than a second but enough that I lose my Internet connection. In the last half-hour I’ve lost my connection at least 6 times since I started counting. I cannot stress how much I’ve really grown to dislike this city since I’ve moved here almost five years ago. I have a friend living in the DC area and she keeps trying to lure me up that way. I think I’m going to have to ask about how “sturdy” the utilities are up there.
