so last night i got off work at 11pm. and i noticed my house was a bit chily. "no biggie" i thought to myself, i'll just blast it up to like 80 and i'll be set.
hours go by, and i'm still cold. i wake up around 7:30am, after sleeping w/ my hoddy on, to find out, it was 48 ING DEGREES in my house. i went to look at the furnace....it was running just fine....but w/out any flames.
called the gas company.
they had my street address FROM ACROSS THE STREET. ! so when the sellers called to terminate their service, my gas got shut off...and my named was attached across the street!
so i had to wait around all morning, freezing my ass off, for a technician to come out and turn my gas on.
it's now 75 degrees and it feels fantastic.
---------
i got my fridge and washer delievered today. home depot ed up my order , so i have no dryer. and when the guys were installing the washer, they messed up something initially, because on a test run, the hose came flying off and waster was spraying all over my utility room. it sucked. it works now, thank God, but still pretty useless w/out a dryer.
----------
on the plus side, today, i found out that the spotlights above my carport are on a motion sensor, so that's cool. and i officially closed on the house too....so it's officially now in my name.
i think i signed more documents than when i commissioned into the military :wtf: |

calling the gas company to turn on the gas switch that only they have the key/acces to turn is considered sissy?
well, if i had known that, i would have just gone outside in the sub freezing weather, naked, chopped down a tree with my teeth, and started a fire with my bear [pun] hands. |
