It must have come back on during the night, because when I woke up and looked out the window this morning I noticed that our neighbor's front porch light was on (since we had to disconnect from the grid temporarily to install the generator I didn't have any indications like that at my own house).
So, yayayayayay!!! We have air conditioning again, and the light switches actually work. :) The only bad part is that I have to go back to work today (we're still on generator power there), but I have a feeling that all we're going to be doing is talking about the storms for the next several days...
For the love of all things scrapbooking. And Star Wars.
