Dang, now I'm second guessing myself. This memory foam mattress is gets rave reviews and would be about the same price as what I ended up paying for a regular mattress set. [link]

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Oh, no, buyer's remorse! Kill it! If you're happy with what you bought, smonster, don't worry about it. There's always something that's cheaper or looks like it might be better, but you can only know for sure about what you've got.

not your mom's socks.
So far, I've responded to some business email, gotten HKF to camp with lunch, towel, and swimsuit (the concurrency was Teh hard), called a duct cleaner, and played on the internets from the coffee shop. I have no idea how people work there, but that could have been the Very Chatty people that took key tables near me after I sat down. Now I'm at the eye doc for my first ever appointment, and my first eye check in yonks. Hopefully this will all turn out ok.

Well, but I really really loved the Tempurpedic, and bought the bed I bought on the premise that I'd get a foam topper. But if I can get a highly rated memory foam mattress for slightly cheaper than regular mattress + foam topper, then why not? And I can't pick up the one I bought until Thursday, so the memory foam one might even get here sooner.

Ooooh if you haven't already has your new mattress set in your home, maybe you can get a refund?

That's what I'm hoping, javachik. I was just going to pick it from the warehouse (StW has a truck and volunteered to help), so there shouldn't even be a restocking fee.
So, seriously, I am going to go thermonuclear on my landlord. No word from him this morning, so I just left him a very testy voicemail and am typing up a written notification, which I'm going to send via registered mail and get a receipt. My neighbor offered to lend me his meter, which he doesn't use (not staying in the place) or just run a straight pipe, but I'm starting to think I might be better off just breaking my fucking lease.

smonster, yes, that's untenable. I am so sorry, since you seemed to like that house so muchly! You've been ridiculously patient.

Smonster, that sounds like the right thing to do. Even if the water does get fixed soon, what will happen next time something goes wrong?

Well, in most places it's illegal for him to NOT have water for you, and he's required to pay for other accomodations. So...would he rather get his ass in gear or pay for your hotel room til this is fixed?
