no candles - but then again I am hopeing to avoid heading to the doctor for possible nebulization
and just in case you need some help with your mashed potaotes...
Could just be a hoax, though. I fake some headaches, everyone gets used to poor helpless Spike. Then one day, no warning, I snap a spine, bend a head back, drain 'em dry. Brilliant.

I hope JZ wasn't stuck in traffic too long with the baby.
They made it home in the rain okay and I had hot pasta with meatballs (veggie, but good) waiting for them. JZ's making cookies. Emmett's bouncing Matilda and watching How I Met Your Mother (his first grownup sitcom!), and I'm posting xmas songs to BR.

I'm glad that they made it home safely.
Well, interesting developments on the old heater front.
When I got home, in addition to finding three (3!!) packages in front of my door, I found two space heaters just inside it.
And a message from my landlord. Guess what? The boiler is not going to be fixed. It's far too broken. (And this is the very same one that was pronounced "fine" after I complained when I got back from Thanksgiving.) And they are switching me to electric, but don't know when it can possibly be done, given the holidays so they left me two space heaters.
Seriously?
Luckily it's not supposed to get too cold tonight (staying in the 40s) but we will be having lows in the low 20s on Sunday and Monday night. I won't be home. I hope my cats will be okay without heat.

The status is NOT quo.
sumi, isn't that...well...illegal? I think it may be, holidays or not. At the least, you should not have to pay rent for days that you are without heat.
Can't see any pictures on the 'puter-phone but am glad the little one will be okay.

I'm going to phone them in the morning and see what's going on. I mean, she didn't say that I couldn't continue doing what I've been doing: running the boiler. Having it rundown. Running it again. Over and over, but I don't want to do that if it's dangerous.
And yes, I think it's probably illegal.

I hear the words "rent abatement" in your future. Holler if you want help composing a letter to accompany your rent check without the days that you were without heat.
