Our bunny may have saved our life this morning. It was raining a bit outside early in the AM, and he was stomping like mad. He normally doesn't stomp during rain, he only gets scared if there is thunder/lightning. Anyway I woke up and heard a pitter patter gurgling, but looked outside and it wasn't raining. Then I caught a whiff of something electronically bad. Turns out water? Or some kind of fluid? Got into this surge suppressor and it was gurgling. Extremely hot to the touch, I would guess the liquid inside was boiling. And the plastic is distorted. Will be funny if it turns out he peed on it, which would he mean he actually saved us from his own doing? But I can't wait to dissect the strip and see what is actually inside. If the liquid came from a capacitor or something, I am going to be very upset... Anyway. He gets extra pets and cookies this morning. Good bun.

    And we solved the mystery of wet surge strip: the skylight is leaking when it rains. Occasional water drops fall out of the corner of the trim, right where the surge strip used to be. Hilarity...
