Apparently an avalanche came through early yesterday morning and knocked out our hydroelectric power lines. So the entirety of Juneau is on diesel for the next several months, which they have to barge in from the lower 48, which means our power prices are jumping from 11 cents per kw/h to at least 50.

On a more personal level, that means that (assuming no change in use) our power bill just jumped to $250 a month.

I have a distinct feeling that there's going to be a run on compact fluorescent light bulbs here in town. And that I'm going to be playing a lot less Oblivion and doing a lot more reading over the next few months...

The funny thing is, I'm not even upset about this. This whole morning has just been so strangely disastrous that I can't do anything except laugh over it...
