go away

my apartment has been

FREEZING.

when i say freezing, i mean freezing.

we realized our furnace wasn't working.

so a few days ago

we all put in maintenence requests to have someone come fix it for us.

my roommate, chelsea, took initiative and called her dad last night

and asked him if he could help her figure out what was wrong with it.

after a ten minute phone call,

we felt like idiots.......

the actual furnace itself just needed to be turned on.

ummmmm.......

we were going to do that.

so with the flick of a switch our apartment was warm.

so..

tuesdays are my days i get to sleep in

because my class doesn't start until noon.

so you can imagine how bothered i was when i was awoken to the sound of our doorbell

at 7:59 AM.

why i woke up to it,

no one will ever know.

maybe because it continued dinging for a good three minutes.

i'm sorry,

but i'm in college and it's not even 8:00 in the morning.

anyone that needed ME would not be ringing the doorbell at this time.

so i opted to stay in my bed.

well after about five minutes,

i heard a man's voice grumbling and saying

"i'm coming in!"

well

then i realized we were being robbed.

cool.
poor college student is robbed in the early morning
at home.

i could already see the headlines.

obviously,

i was too tired to hide or anything,

so i decided

"you know what, let them take the spaghetti strainer.

take the can opener.

take my top ramen.
you can even take the boxy t.v. from DI that doesn't work.
take it all.

go for it.

if you come into my room...

well,

let's just hope you don't come in here,

i won't know what to do."

and i pulled the blanket over my head.

i heard loud banging noises coming from right outside my door.

what in the world?

then i felt even more like an idiot

when i realized it was a maintenence man coming to fix our furnace.

that wasn't even broken.

he was going at it for a long time.

i had two options:

a) get out of bed. make myself SOMEWHAT presentable. and go out and tell this poor guy that our furnace wasn't really broken, and he could go home.

b) continue sleeping and let him figure that out eventually.

i think everyone can figure out which one i chose......

sorry :/
