I looks like there is a blown fuse in my apartment.
I tried to turn the lights on, but non of the lights in my house are working..
At first I thought maybe a black out, but since I hadn't heard my UPS kick in, I tried some devices not on the UPS but not on the lights circuit. They worked fine.
So, I'm guessing its the light circuit fuse.
I went to look, but the light in the laundry was not functioning. I reckon if the designers of the fuse box were smart, they'd put the two lights from the kitchen and the laundry on separate circuits, so the probability that I could get light with a fuse problem was greater..
Anyway, the reason I had tried to turn a light on was because I was going to the bathroom, and since I was busting, I didn't want to spend time trying to re-fuse the lights. So, I went to the bathroom. Drawing back on a cigarette (I'm always smoking.. :) produces just enough of a glow to avoid bumping into furniture, etc.
I flashed my cigarette lighter to see where the toilet was, took aim, and let rip.
Mostly I could hear the 'tinkle' as I urinated. But right at the end, I couldn't hear very much.
I hope I haven't pissed all over my bathroom floor..
I'll wait until the sun comes up.. who needs light anyway.

Turns out I didn't piss on the floor.
That's nice.
