As far as the power outage: Boo to the facility, boo to having all eggs in one basket again (haven't we learned from this in the past?), boo to the status pages (why have things so the status page is sometimes unreachable when the site is down; why have two status pages; why have them disagree, with the status.livejournal.org showing it was being worked on while the status.sixapart.com showed that it was NOT because Vox was - this was after Typepad was up, o'course). Overall, not really very impressed with Six Apart's communication, or the co-location facility, but mostly with the communication. (I was also annoyed at the priorities in bringing up LJ last, but that turned out to be a communications issue as, unlike the SA site implied, they were working on LJ at the same time as the others. It just took longer, which there's really only so much you can do about that, so...life goes on.)
Funny from my page-a-day calendar: "On a bottle of bath-tub cleaner: For best results, start with a clean tub before use." Er.
Got a load of laundry done tonight. Basta is not feeling entirely well, but so far holding up okay, I think. I read more of The Assassin King which is quite good.
Amazon has shipped me something, which both baffles and (mildly) annoys me. Baffles as I didn't order anything, so someone got me something. Annoys, because they sent it UPS, which (after a number of tiffs with UPS about their asinine delivery methods) means I have to stop at their place in Tualatin on the way home tomorrow to pick it up. I'm not sure this is actually an improvement over having them slide the front door mat over it, except that I am less likely to step on an unexpected package this way, or find it rain-soaked. But I avoid ordering things that must ship UPS if at all possible, and now I shall have to find this place (got the driving directions, sounds fairly easy) and find out what I'm getting. I hope it's neat, at least! I like some surprises, gifts usually among them. I just don't like UPS. At least it's on my way home from work, so it'll be easy enough to get.
Time for me to go to bed.
