Note to self- You are a lot of things, but you are not an electrician.

It's been a little dark here at my cottage the past few days. Mmm hmm. My old dimmer switch in my kitchen nook blew out three weeks ago and I completely lost my mind decided that I could replace it myself, because I live in a fantasy world consider myself "handy".
"How hard could it be?", I thought to myself. I mean, the worst thing that would happen is that it wouldn't work, right? Wrong. The worst thing that can happen is that you can blow out all the power in one half of your lil' cottage.(Okay, the very worst thing would be that you could burn down your little cottage, but ending up with no lights in 4 rooms of your cottage is not good either...) Then, after the worst has happened, you have to wait several days to get someone that actually knows what they are doing to come over and take a look see. Today is that day.
