Anyone experiencing low electricity?

yup, 7th and lincoln here and we're flickering. if my AC goes out i'm going to kill someone

When I was running the dishwasher the lights were flickering

I just spoke to the guy heading up Con Ed work on 7th Ave and 4th who said "The Main Feeder Went" but when I asked him if we would lose power he said "I don't think so."

Lights are noticebly dim in my apt and some of the lights on 7th Ave are out out out.

is anyone still having issues currently? I'm at work (in Manhattan) and I'd hate for the electricity to blow while my little guy is home alone (my dog)
We've been having some drainage of power, not as bad as "the night the lights went out on Union". That night I was running on spit!

Do you leave the A/C on for her?

i don't worry about it too much because the person
who originally rescued her off the street
couldn't handle raising her cause she already had a dog
so i adopted that dog a month later

this same person, let's call her rita
–takes better care of my dog than i do sometimes

my dog is late getting home. i bet you they're at the dog beach

yea. she came home late soaking wet from the doggie beach
she played with one of her boyfriends. this young pit bull mix

got home. ate some kibble with soup
a few treats. some glucosamine chews. laid out flat on the floor
the door is closed otherwise she'd be panting out in the unA/C'ed half of the apt

animals know a/c is not kosher

my apt. is a floor-thru, so I have 2 ACs. I usually either cool the living room and dining room (and watch TV) or the bedroom and office (computer, other TV) and close off the kitchen, spare bedroom, bathroom, hallway, etc.

Not only is my cat in the god-awful part, he's snuggling in the furry kitty bed. He's crazy, but I love him. The other one is on the floor right next to him.

yup, i'm also in a floor thru--cat's in front part, in the non airconditioned livingroom/kitchen, i'm in the back in the a/c.

My dogs are like that too. I have to drag them into the air-conditioned room. They prefer to lie in the un-airconditioned hallway, panting and drooling and looking like they're about to die. They are weird.

personally, I am a fan of:

it changes almost daily

ewwwwwwww. i just picked up the phone.
one of those cordless ones where the battery is on the handset itself
it's steaming hot.
like a pizza fresh outta the oven! :shock:

I love these 5 cats on the bed (a few down from the top). Talk about HEAT!
