By the time I called the electric company, workers were at my house in mere minutes. I don't know if they have a guy who lives near by or what, but boy was that amazingly fast. When my power went out during a rainstorm in Sacramento, hours passed before anybody stopped by the house, but in Hawaii the service call was immediate.
So yeah, this weekend, I had no electricity, and no water and then swarms of gnats later when the power came back. Just to fix a fire hydrant in the street caused a pipe to burst and workers also managed to mess up the electrical. But it's the gnats that were the worst thing to deal with this weekend. For some reason, maybe climate change, Hawaii has a stronger infestation of gnats than usual this year.
Every few minutes, while watching TV, I have to jump outta my chair and smack the screen. I was very determined to kill each and every last one of them. You can read more in my personal blog today at this link: Without Water or Electricity and Killing Gnats in Hawaii.
