I fully intended to spend a relaxing day at home this Saturday.
- It is my typical custom as a bachelor without a care in the world and a pretty decent paying job that nonetheless strains me during the work week.
I might go out with friends every now and then on a Saturday, but I typically save that for a Sunday or a holiday. Yes, I have come to enjoy Saturdays as a day where I just chill out and do nothing but play video games, read, or just watch videos or movies or TV shows. It’s that day of the week that just distresses me, where I have no responsibilities or obligations, save to enjoy myself, at least most of the time. So, you can imagine my frustration when my air conditioner suddenly decided to give out on me just halfway through the morning. I gave up pretty quickly. I’m trying to figure out what the heck was wrong, so I called out an HVAC technician. Unfortunately, my typical HVAC company of choice was extremely busy that day, so no one would be able to come out until Sunday! I was filled with dread as I faced down an entire day without an air conditioner in the middle of the summer, but also an entire night! As for the day, the only thing that I could think to do was go to the local library and get some serious reading done. I was quite thankful for the excellent air conditioning in the library. I actually ended up finishing a book that I had been meaning to finish for a while. It was around 5:30 when I decided I would go out to eat to stall for time before I would inevitably have to return to my hot box of a house to try and get some measure of rest. I chose a very nice Chinese buffet place with a great air conditioner. I swear I would have slept in the back if they would have let me!
