  1. tfw the internet in the living room goes out because the LAN hub there is plugged into a plug bar which itself is plugged into another plug bar in the office, which is inexplicably on the same circuit as a socket in the kitchen which powers the toaster...

    ...and we are reminded yet again of the long-apparent fact that this house urgently needs rewiring, and yet this is still not the top item on the priority-queue because first the gutters need replacing because they're rusted out and then the roof needs replacing before it starts leaking, along with some siding that's been damaged by water not being safely redirected by the rusted-out gutters, and we are a long way off from being able to afford any of that (and, at present, getting further away).

    ...only this time, it wasn't even the toaster; we're not sure why it tripped... which just kind of underscores the point.
