Last night at twenty past eight, I get a call from my mother that I should change the bridesmaid dress I chose for the wedding. Her reasons sounded wacky, but until I actually go see the dress again, I won't know for sure. Still, after the initial panic, it led to three hours of trying to find some alternatives that would work. And I was supposed to go look at one of them today (as well as the dress we were about to order.)
And then...
We got about five inches of snow last night/this morning. I did an initial round of shoveling, and Cayne did a second this morning. As he was shoveling, the snowplow came by. And the snowplow took out our phone line-ripped it from both the house and junction box, and dragged it down the street, hitting him with the cable in the process. The plow also managed to take down the cable and phone lines next door. I don't know if the plow took down anything else on the street. Needless to say, I was on the phone with public works moments after. Cayne seems to be okay, but is going to get checked out on the way to work. The phone company is going to eventually come and fix the wire...when I spoke to the phone company they were apologetic, for sure, but explained that they were making appointments for Monday but would try as hard as they could to get here today and fix it. I'm not holiding my breath, but it will all be okay.
In the meantime, if you're trying to reach us, I'd suggest calling my cell or Cayne's cell. If you don't have the number, and expect that you might need it, email me.
