Don't you hate waiting for repair people? You get a window of time, and you need to be at home during that window of time. If you go out to the store, or run down to the corner, they will surely arrive while you're gone, and then you'll have reschedule that appointment.
Anyhow, my appointment for the repair of my air conditioner had a two hour window. Better than a four hour window. I decided to do it on my lunch hour, between 12-2. Of course he came at about five minutes to two.
Turned out the problem was the capacitor, not to be confused with the "flux capacitor". If that was the case, all I'd have to do is shove an old banana peel and half empty can of beer in the thing, and then I could zoom back to the future, and have a cool house to boot!! It took him twenty minutes to change out the part. The bill was $243. Now, our hot days seem to be over for the time being. Oh well, I'll try to be an optimist and wait for some more hot days this summer. Actually, it's kind of nice to not have to use it. I love having the windows open, hearing the birds and having a nice breeze flow through the house. However, the next strong heat wave we get, I'm ready!!
