No power= the suck haha

[solchitlins]

I hear ya, were so lucky to live in America where this doesn't happen too much.

I spent the past summer in Ulaanbaatar Mongilia. Power and Water are all goverment controlled. Power and water outtages were a daily thing there.

I was working as a Chef and let me tell you cooking by candle light with no exhast fans and no way to wash your hands or dishes for hours really sucks.

I would get so fustrated.

Hot water outtages would rotate blocks through out the city all summer long. So when your block was out you would be taking icy showers for a few weeks.

We would joke that we were in training and the icy showers were making us really tuff.
LOL

fun times....

yeah it was kinda like that lol..

im from ma. but i got no ice or snow

your one of the lucky ones. some of my friends might be out of power until thursday

Oh men that sucks sooooooooo much That kind of thing happened to me a copple of times simply not in such a large period. If I were you I think I would have don things a bit diferent I would have wrapped both igs in warm blankets and would have brougth them with me to my parents place. That nigth both igs would have sleept in my bed with me(or should I say they would sleep, I would stay rater awaken so not to skish them or anything) a good old herp guy trick to keep your herps warm. Wach out for the claws It aind dificult to do, once ligths are out igs fall asleep. Sorry however for your fish. Thats why I like turtles better then fish, they are so dependent on electricity. Well it seems that your ready for a colection makeover once this is over and perhaps I can make you get some turts

thing is i live with my parents still. and the rest of my family isnt really into the whole reptile thing lol. they stayed pretty warm. i used alot of hand warmers lol. they lasted for about 10 hours a peice. so i was constantly rotating them in and out. i had a t-shirt that i was using for the big igg. i would fill it up and let him lay on it. he also had ample time around the one heater. lucky for me it was right outside where my room is. so all my herps stayed pretty warm. and about the turt thing. well lets just say ive been looking around. but im more of a land turtle type of person. i had a box turtle when i was about 5 and he was great. another may be in the works ill be coming to you for advice


the other thing that was worse than the power and such being out is it was a real pain to get around anywhere. trees and power poles and lines were down all over the place. i couldnt leave my house until about 3pm friday. driving down roads was like driving through the woods. it looked like a war zone around me. ill try and get some pics up if people are interested.
