heh, something came up Sunday out of the blue. I'm currently on a friend's computer and hopefully I'll get my computer tomorrow and have it set up by the weekend. I pry it still works.
Long story short - my video games, DVDs and their players are gone, but we all came out unhurt, even my cat seems fine.

Firefighters contain blazes over weekend

MAT-SU -- Central Mat-Su firefighters were able to avert a disaster and save a residence Sunday morning after what officials suspect was an electrical fire started in the garage, Mat-Su Fire Chief Jack Krill said Monday.
The fire was contained and stopped in the kitchen, and fire officials reported no injuries.
At approximately 7:30 a.m. Sunday, neighbors on their way to church saw smoke coming from the garage of Edward Tatro's residence at 305 N. Harriet St. near Wasilla.
Tatro and his wife were asleep in their house when neighbors woke them. The Tatros had smoke detectors but they did not go off, Krill said.
"It's a problem we run into pretty often, smoke detectors are either not there, disabled or unplugged," Krill said. "In this case, if the neighbor hadn't woke them up, it would've been a lot worse."
A total of 35 firefighters responded from Central Mat-Su Fire Department, Palmer and Meadow Lakes, with three fire engines and three water tankers.
Krill said that nearly all of the contents of the house were salvageable and only the garage was seriously damaged by the fire.

I'll explain in detail later, at the very least my internet will be more then spotty for the next three-six months. I don't know when I'll be online again. See you all later.
