blowing fuses

So I blew a fuse or quite a few in the apartment today attempting to blow dry my hair... so the guy at brookstone has some beef with me one month from now... The bad news beyond feeling bad about that is that we tried to flip the breaker and that shut off all power to the flat so we were...
