Did I mention that we had a note posted in my building that they had gotten rid of the washers and dryers (with no advance warning), and that they'd be replaced (after some work was done in the laundry room) at some unspecified point in the future?
And it's been almost a month, with no laundry facilities, and no info on when we can expect laundry facilities. Some people wrote angry notes on the posted notices, which were then taken down and fresh ones put up.
A month is really too long for this to be going on, huh?
That's infuriating. I'm not sure what I'd do in the face of it.
Oy -- reminds me of my old apartment where we lost cooking gas plus the laundromat downstairs for MONTHS. What a nightmare.
Does your lease mention laundry access on the premises? If so, then you might have a cse for withholding some rent.
I'd suggest writing a letter or email and state that if the facilities are not operative in 24 or 48 hours you'll be sending your laundry out and deducting the expense from the rent. And then do so.
NYTimes had a piece about Dark Matter that lead me to Wikipedia which lead me to their article on Unsolved Problems in Physics which is interesting.
Here is your unsolved problem in physics of the day:
Entropy (arrow of time)
Why did the universe have such low entropy in the past, resulting in the distinction between past and future and the second law of thermodynamics?
I didn't realize low entropy resulted in the distinction between past and future! I don't even know what that means, really.
Though there does seem to be some implication that we wouldn't have to go to work today if Lee were more entropic yesterday.
good morning, glories!
Today might be Monday, but the sky is quite a pretty blue. For LA that's a win.

It's greyer than Gandalf's boxer briefs in SF.
tommyrot, I know it's annoying, but I have to disagree with the advice about withholding rent. Generally, to legally repair & withhold the problem has to be much more than annoying, but actually a threat to your health, make the apt unfit for occupation, etc, even if something is covered in the lease.

Well hey, at least it's grey. Grey isn't so bad. Brown is bad.
