Ravings of a Textual Deviant

My air-conditioning has been out all weekend, and not wanting to pay holiday-weekend repair rates, New Housemate and I stuck it out. My house has many fine qualities, but “built for good air circulation” sure isn’t one of them. I was so relieved when I called the repair company and was told I’d get a call after 7:00 AM today to let me know when they’d be there.

Well, 9:00 AM rolled around and I hadn’t heard a peep, so I checked in. Turns out that the company’s answering service booked 150 appointments on today’s calendar, and there was simply no way they’d be able to get to my house before 2:00 PM tomorrow. Not physically possible, the nice man on the phone apologized.

So, here I am looking for a silver lining. And I found one.

At least the toilet seats aren’t cold.
