Notes from thee basement.

HydroOttawa has fucked up, claiming that my power usage went up by an order of magnitude one month, and now I have a completely insane and impossible $3,300 hydro bill. They then proceeded to blackmail me into a payment plan by threatening to cut off my power within 24 hours, while saying it would take 48+ hours to get a supervisor to call me back to discuss the issue. They have since replaced my meter and refuse to discuss the issue with me until they’re done ‘investigating’. They have yet to tell me what they’re investigating. I may sue. Rogers has fucked up in a similar fashion that I don’t even want to get into, and now I have a completely insane $1,200 bill.

(In related news, I don’t think I’m going to Maschinenfest.)

Saw some guy wearing a totenkopf death head t-shirt when I was out for lunch with coworkers. Do people still think this is cool? I mean, it’s not as stupid as wearing an SS uniform to a nightclub or anything, but still.

Might be going on a US tour with Cyanotic/Acumen/Acucrack in November. Not 100% yet. This will, coincidentally, be the second time I will be in tour with Cyanotic in the US and Nine Inch Nails comes to play Ottawa.

Need to get on that fucking backpiece tattoo I already put down money for.
