Periodically I genuinely wonder about my man.
He’s so smart in so multiple ways… and then genuinely surprises me in other ways when he does incredibly stupid shit.
This day, for instance, it came to light that he had not ever taken care of our insurance payment because he couldn’t’ remember the login information online. Therefore, he just let our policy expire because he didn’t make the time to call client service. I swear to god, there are days that I almost murder him for his stupidity. That’s why I genuinely shouldn’t be surprised about our little heating and cooling mishap the other week. I woke up one day to find that it was abruptly Fall! The air temperature outside had abruptly plummeted by about 25 degrees, and as such, the indoor air temperature had become surprisingly brisk, as well. At first I ran down to the thermostat and began punching at the heater power button, trying to increase the heater settings to at least 72 degrees. The thermostat responded, but I never heard the central heating equipment kick into gear as I got ready for work. By the time I walked out the door that day, I was chilled to the bone and convinced that my friend and I had a major heating issue. Of course, my guy and I then had to argue over whether or not my friend and I should call out an Heating, Ventilation, and A/C specialist to look over the heater, because he was convinced that the Heating, Ventilation, and A/C repair could be done without a professional’s opinion; Fast forward to three days later, my friend and I still had no laboring heat in the house. Literally as I picked up the cellphone to call the nearest ventilation specialist, my boyfriend had a brilliant revelation. The heater wasn’t broken at all, but he had never set up the gas in our property to power the heating device.
