I’m sitting on my couch writing this on my iPhone. The power went out after I heard a couple explosions down the street. Presumably transformers popping. I gather from the radio broadcasts that anyone without power will not be getting it back until Monday.

I do not think either of the Halifax bridges are open, but I’m going to try to get to work today. Unfortunately I have to rely on Metro Transit, so we’ll see how that goes.

Oh, and my smoke detector keeps making a noise like a person with a whistly nose… You know the sound I mean. Should I be concerned? Should I unplug it?

Bah… This is annoying.
