Thursday, January 18. 2007My crappy night!
So I came home from my soccer game last night (we won, and I scored another Hat-trick) sweaty and tired to find that my apartment was rather cold (approximately 60 deg. and falling fast). I called my landlord only to find out that she knew about it, but could not do anything until the next day. So I had no heat and no hot water.
My options: 1. Take a cold shower right then and get clean. Then go to bed with extra blankets to try and stave off hypothermia. 2. Go to bed as is with an extra blanket to hopefully stave off the cold of the night, and then shower in the morning. Hopefully again avoiding hypothermia. 3. Go to bed and not shower in the morning, and just hope no one would smell my sweaty body at work. 4. Boil water and take a bath. I opted for item #4. So I began the long process of boiling copious amounts of water to fill my tub with hot water. Around 10pm I had filled my tub with enough water that I felt comfortable taking a bath. I poured the last pan of hot water in the tub and then all the lights went very dim. I quickly started to turn things off, but to no avail. I was plunged into darkness. Sweaty, stinky, cold, and moist (from all the steam of the boiling water) I slumped into my chair and just sat in the darkness for about 5 minutes. I finally picked myself up and called a friend to crash at his place. I think I got about 4 hours sleep last night. I am about to leave work right now. Here's hoping when I get home I will have heat and hot water. Trackbacks
