The 200 block of Vinet Ave in Old Jefferson is one of only six blocks in that neighborhood still without power. An Entergy representative informed me today that power would "definitely be restored by September 9." Of course, just yesterday I was told that power would "definitely be restored by September 8," so the the word "definitely" obviously doesn't have the same meaning for Entergy as it does for the rest of the English-speaking population. All of which means that, if Hurricane Ike follows its projected path, there is an outside chance that by the time I get power back I'll have to evacuate the very next fucking day.
Yeah, I can't wait to see how this situation plays out . . .
