How Dare the Power Company Shut Off My Power on the Day I Asked Them to Shut Off My Power



I’ve officially said goodbye to Sumter, South Carolina.

After getting the Honda’s loaded weight and returning my apartment and mailbox keys, I went back to the apartment to finish cleaning.

I walked inside and thought “Didn’t I leave the fans running?” Puzzled! I looked at the microwave and cussed.

I was grateful I vacuumed the night before. I was slightly panicked that I had to get the food sorted out sooner. I was pissed off that I had to go to Starbucks for a 4pm client call — because no internet.
