Sweltering Inferno

For those of you who don't know, the Denver-Metro area is experiencing a serious heat wave right now. Yesterday it almost broke 100 degrees. Normally this wouldn't be that big of a deal, but my new townhome's airconditioner won't come on. I don't know if it is broken, or if I am just too dumb to figure out how to turn it on. All I know is last night my room was a million degrees. Lying on my bed, I felt like a strip of bacon writhing in a frying pan. I had to go downstairs and sleep on the fouton. Last night I thought my roommates were going to lynch me when I told them that I hadn't called the landlord about it yet. The murderous glints in their eyes were frightening enough to propel me to action. I called the lady this morning, so hopefully soon we will have an icy cold chill circulating through our abode.
