Oh my ... well this post went further than I thought it would. But, if you all don't mind, part II of "I hate it when things like this happen" ....
It is going to be in the mid 20s tonight, and I ran out of propane about two hours ago. So .... we will be getting through the night sans heat.
What fun, you say?? Not so much, really. I will likely head into the upstairs bedroom for the night. Heat rises, or so I've been told, and I'm hoping that that room will stay warmer longer. If it doesn't .... there's always plan B:
The hot water heater is electric, so if push comes to shove, I'm going to curl up in the steam "room" (after making sure it's set no higher than 90 degrees F or so .... I'm not completely mad), take a sleeping pill and just zone out sitting on the bench in there. At the worst, I'll wake up pruney and wrinkley, and it's not like I can drown in a steam room ... catch a case of mildew, maybe, but not drown (and with the temp under 100 there is no danger of heat stroke .... crap it's cold in here right now.
This has been such an interesting day. Interesting as in Chinese curse, interesting.
Shutting down. Talk to you all tomorrow. KitchenAid still sucks, but I'm probably going to get that dishwasher anyway (although the idea I saw below about making my own insert does sound interesting). Apparently lots of companies suck, so I guess it's not news.
I could have sworn that I saw the propane company out here just a week or so ago. I hope it's not a problem with the line .... erk, and double erk. (Can't feel my farking feet!!! .... brrrrrrrr)
