bitter magnet

ok, through my incredible brilliance i managed to knock out all the power in my office (and the next). Argh. Thing is, it was freezing in my office, and I made the lame mistake of plugging in the space heater into the regular office outlet (instead of using the one on the extension cord that leads to an outlet in the hall). The thing is, there's only like 20 Amps available per 2 offices, and the space heaters (there's one in the next office too) suck up a lot of energy. This has happened before, when Niamh went to boil some hot water and that sent it over the edge. We were all warned about this, and i knew very well of it, but i was just not thinking straight i guess. Poor Joyce and Joerg had to end up going home since there computers were off and they couldn't do anything. I feel really lame, but what else can i do. :(

Well at least that is the benefit of having a laptop..i can still email and waste time on a battery. yay!
