Ok, so Friday the 13th usually isn't a bad day for me. Normally I have good luck. I know, it's all superstition, but still. Anyways, today was just a day from hell.
I got a new a/c today and I plugged it in.. it worked for like 2 hours, then blew everything in my apartment. Blew 2 fuses, changed them to brand new ones. NOTHING. I have a friend who's an electrician go to my place and FINALLY figured out what was wrong.. I need all new wiring and everything. He did get it working, but he advised us to 1) make the landlord change all the wiring, breakers, everything, or 2) move. Trying to make the land lord do anything is like trying to make pigs fly. She's really nice, but when it comes to fixing anything, blah.
Well, that's not even the best part. We couldn't get a hold of the land lord until 10pm tonight, and our power was off since 2pm. I'm at my mom's now cause I can't live without a/c, but thats BS. We tried 3 different numbers for her, tried called her husband, tried calling out "handy man". We couldn't get anyone. Then when we did get a hold of her, she complained that we had a/c to begin with. We have lived there for a year and a half and when we moved in there, we told her that I have asthma and I need the a/c in the summer. She said it was "no problem". Now she's complaining about the electric bill being a little high. And this comes from a women who makes $500,000 a year or more, and yes I know that for a fact.
Anyways, if anyone in the Pittsburgh area knows of any places to live for a decent price, in a good neighborhood and allows pets, please let me know!
