No power in Bangsar

Well, I am sitting here at Starbucks in Jalan Telawi 3 in Bangsar Baru because there is no power in my house. This is one of the worse we’ve experienced in a while – usually its just a row or two.

But at about 9ish, the power went off in the whole neighbourhood. I took a drive around and the whole stretch of my road, the one behind me and the one paralell in front went off too. A further drive would show that many parts of the neighbourhood is in the dark.

Twitter and Facebook updates (as well as SMS messages) have indicated that “Certain parts of PJ”, the area near Tivoli Villas and Jalan Damansara have all gone black.

Oh wait … power is back on. Just got a call from mum.

I was gonna use this as an opportunity to blog about Earth Hour which is happening in a week (and joke about how this power cut could be Tenaga Nasional’s way of a trial run ). I’ll save that for another day though.

I’m going home. I’m sleeeepppy.
