Default LOL - my own personal power outage

Hello all, this was too funny and I had to share...

I am sure many have heard about the power outages all over Florida and South Florida. Well, I seem to have so far escaped unscathed. In fact, I have been working all day, and since I work at home, with no tv or radio on, other than a few blips of the power and the internet kind of acting weird I really had no clue anything was going on until my mother called to see if my kids were in lockdown.


At any rate, after all this, since I do have power, I am working away, when all of a sudden every thing in my office shuts down!!!

My cat, aptly named Booger because she really is one, walked across the power supply of my computer system and printers and hit it just so, so that she turned it off and everything shut down! In 14 years of working at home, with three cats, this has never happened before. Who knows, maybe she wanted me to join the rest of Miami in a forced day off!

Heck! I don't need FPL to shut me down....I have Booger.
