Wonder if the solar flares

just messed with us a few minutes ago? I couldn't get much movement online, and I looked at the satellite box, and not all the lights were up and flickering as usual. It's okay now, but unless a massively large Owl jumped on top of the dish, I can't imagine what caused the partial outage.

Sometimes when the moon is waxed out almost full, I have a little trouble, but this was really intense. I almost had to take a melatonin!
