Taking cold showers gives me weird dreams
Times like this I miss renting. I also miss hot water that does not involve heating it on the stove or driving to the "in-laws" to have it *gasp* actually come out of the wall already warmed. This has been since Thursday. This adventure has involved: getting a part after work, a drop in by his brother (who has *never once* been to the house), another trip to Chick to replace the "faulty" new part and get a different part, a trip to Lawton to replace the left threaded second part (we needed right threaded), drop ins on every know place in Chick to price new water heaters, swapping vehicles with his mother, a call from her to ask me to break the bread she forgot was thawing in her truck, dropping three loaves of freshly baked bread thru the night drop at the library so she'd have them for story time, swapping vehicles once he got off work to go get the new water heater, a trip out to his folks to get a dolly, a drop in by his dad (who never comes in), a tear in the vinyl floor just put in the bathroom recently, black stuff all over creation and the fairly new carpet, two periods of not speaking to each other, dishes and laundry piled up and two people who need hot showers. Too Bad suckahs...even after putting in a brand new $302 water heater we have the same problem we had originally. Light the pilot? Sure. Turn the damned thing on to heat water and it all goes out. I have learned that given time the pilot will take the chill off enough to make it slightly warmer than mind chillingly frigid. I can't wait to get ready for work. I am pretty certain I will be the first call ONG gets this morning. Begging and pleading will be involved. To hell with shame at this point.
I woke a bit ago after having a dream of a a conversation with my mom. In my dream I was half listening to her rattle on about the recent visitors she'd had she I heard "... and DJ so and so came by with DJ DJ...I just love him, he's such a sweetheart..." WTF?!? I woke up annoyed because I spent the last bit of the dream trying to get her back to that part to find out who the hell brought deathjest by her house and how she knew him/them in the first place.
Wish me hot water, people.
