Dichotomy...

Looks like my electricty problems might be solved. I've been living in my apartment for 3 months as of Thursday and realized about a week ago that I had yet to receive a power bill. I have power though. After 2 non-consecutive hours on hold with Dominion Power and an e-mail I sent via their website, I finally got a response back that the account was not set up in my name yet. Which is funny because in order to sign my lease, I had to sign up for gas and power and give the leasing office a copy of the order. Whatever. So I signed up again yesterday, and after their website crashed 3 times telling me "due to temporary difficulties we could not process your request" I finally got it to go through. So they'll be "turning on" my power tomorrow for a $15 setup fee. But I'm keeping my fingers crossed that I just got 3 months of free electricity out of this whole ordeal. Dominion Power sucks worse than Cox! I didn't think that was even possible!
