The luxury of hot water

Let me start by saying I have not had a hot shower in a week. I have had 2 "warm" showers that lasted 3 minutes. The rest have been luke warm or flat out cold. Now this is fine if you go for a 3 mile run before all showers.

However, if you don't it gets annoying real quick.

Some how I went from having a gas hot water heater that can take your skin off and a whirlpool tube to cold showers with no tub at all.

For a marathon bather like me this is unacceptable.

Now for the real problem, I'm not paying rent here, so I can't really complain about a little lack of ,oh, hot water.

This folks is why I do not like accepting anything free. There is always a catch and you can get screwed so easily. If I had been left alone to get an apartment in North Chattanooga, I would have hot water. That is the last time I get guilt tripped into saving money.

If I didn't I could b%&^$ about it and demand it be fixed. But no I had to give in and agree to save money, yet all those people who told me I would be wasting money on an apartment have hot water.

One in particular even has my whirlpool.

If the house had gas service, I would be tempted to just buy a new hot water heater and take it with me when I move. But alas the gas is not hooked up.

This is not the proper way to study for the bar exam.

Everyone reading this go take a hot shower right now, for me, and think about teh luxury of hot water.
