Had my bouts with "days without power" so i know how bad it is. Glad you got it back.

Had a few bad power outage days here in VA. Glad yours is back on, hope everyone that has no power will soon have power..

Welcome back.

I endured last year 4-5 meters of snow on my house, no power, no internet, no access to roads, just snowed in the house, no water, and running low on food.I only had some flashes of electricity that would last 10-40 minutes. Lasted for almost 3 weeks, after that the spring started, I came out with a beard, lost much kilos and smelled like a bear. But then again, it was not in the city, more wilderness here.

11 days is long to without electricity and internet, but it is a great way to find yourself back and reconsider a few things here and there, move around some stuff and sleep a lot

Makes you realize we are all zombies addicted to modern life.

I hear ya! I wasn't out that long, only a few days but the cable/internet in my area took a lot longer to get back online. I'm in Central NJ. Where are you guys located?

**SexKey Scott** · 11-09-2012, 12:51 PM

Woot on your power back.. I thought 7 days sucked.. 11? Forget about it!

Not complaining though - tons of people who suffered and still are way worse than just power.

Long Island about 40 minutes from Manhattan

A friend of mine lives a couple blocks from the harbor (never got a drop of flooding at her place in the decades she has lived there). Right now she has a 40' sailboat beached on her front lawn. Nobody knows who owns it, it washed up there somehow during the storm and the water receded without the boat. She called the police and they told her they don't have a protocol in place for how to handle 'someone's boat washed up in my yard', they also said they have so many emergencies that they wont be dealing with the boat for weeks unless it becomes a danger or fire hazard.

So, if you know anyone missing a nice sailboat on the south shore of long island, let me know... I may be able to help them find it haha. ;)
