I was thinking about you yesterday and hoping that that A/C man found his way to you. It was hot, hot, hot. I know that this is our first summer with A/C after living in the house for 10 years. I know that I bow to the A/C control thingy daily...

So true! There have been moments when I thought would trade a kidling for some A/C.... just kidding....(well, maybe only a little) I hope your love affair is long and coooool!

Ah, I remember the 100 degree heat of California well. So happy for you and the kitties that you are now chillin'!

YAY! I am so glad to hear your house finally cooled down. I was this close to ordering a window unit and having it shipped to your house! ;-)

So glad that you and the kitties are finally cool. I don't know what we would do with out the A/C, we live in Oregon and while it is not as hot here. We still congratulate ourselves for installing the air when we had to replace our furnace.

Hurrah! Hurrah! ALL HAIL THE AC! I'm so glad you and the fur coats are getting some cool air!

Ahhhh one of God's blessings to the world. A/C.

I bless the people who developed it, make the machines, keep'm running and the people who generate the electricity to keep'm on.

Glad the kitties are well. Hope you got some sleep.

Men.. who needs'm (well..)
Air Conditioning and heat? Necessity.

Last time our A/C failed, we went to a hotel. It was worth it. I cannot stand hot weather. Glad you're back and functional and the kitties haven't melted!

Huzzah!

YAY air! i need some of that myself. but on another note...

last night i brought home some new yarn (in a shade best described as "grover blue") and my boyfriend promptly picked it up.... and sniffed it. i just stood there, mouth agape, and wondered aloud if my scruffy motorcycle riding boy had, in fact, just sniffed my yarn.

and he admitted to it.

so know you are in good company.

You crack me up! Really, every time I read your blog, I laugh out loud. And then proceed to read your post out loud to anyone near me, wether they want to hear it or not!

Glad you got the air fixed. I couldn't imagine being without mine...Oh wait, except for the one year when I was 8 months pregnant with no air in the middle of summer! Ugh!

YAHOO!!! I am glad to hear the air is back on...Hugs to you and the kitties!!

Yippeedoooo! And so happy that kitties don't have to wear the pink washcloths anymore. Unless you want to take their pictures.

Thank the goddess - Purl and the furry ones have air!!! Was it really near 100 in the apartment, Laurie? Oh my gawwwdddddd - you should report those slovenly other "repair people" to the BBB and apply for a rebate on this month's rent as it really was outside of Board of Health standards for habitable. Bet if you check with the Board of Health you'll find it's so and the landlord could get into big trouble... (unless you own the place, like a condo??) Oh well, I'm off to have a wine cooler to celebrate. YEAHH - Purl is back to bein' cool. :) (not that she ever was uncool, but you know what I'm sayin')

Hehehe Eternal Warped Optimist.

Thanks now I finally have a title to describe myself. And you're right... men are a dime a dozen but A/C now THERE'S love (she says while hiding in my friend's basement... with the A/C on).

So happy the furry ones are regaining their desire for play! :)

I'm surprised you didn't actually give away one of your cats for cool air, heat makes me nuts. Hell, I'd give away my sister in extreme heat for central air and a popsicle.

Woo-hoo Chilly girl! I'm glad to hear you have A/C again and that your babies are, once again, cool cats!

COOL!

I'd offer to send baked goods to Repairman #3 if I had A/C or the gumption to turn on the oven in my non air house. I guess I could always crawl in the casserole dish and and call myself baked goods since that's what I feel like. Anyway, relieved to hear that you've got the cool back and that the furbabies are reviving. I'll bet when you read this in the morning you'll think I've lost it but ehhh, this is what lack of sleep and heat do to a person! :) Hugs and happy thoughts and a little mental voodoo for good measure!

I remember one summer day as a child when my mother called my father at work and said we were moving to the Sleepy Hollow motel unless he brought home an air conditioner. He brought home an air conditioner. Jane

Huzzah for cool! I wish I could bundle up some cool to you and you send us some hot! Only it would be wrong to be hot in winter. Huzzah for the airconditioning man!

Yay! Happy for you and kitties.

YAY for Laurie and her kitties! They have air! I hope you never had to pay that first repairman anything. What a worthless waste of human flesh.

In light of what Kendra said about her boyfriend and the yarn sniffing...I have found myself doing it...to Alpaca. Well, Alpaca wool, but you know what I'm sayin'...

Wonderful news about your A/C! I don't know how you survived the heat wave, poor thing... and the kitties, you five deserve a parade!

I have this overwhelming twitch to suggest you post the name and phone number of the first A/C company... and everyone should call and berate them about how much they SUCK!!! and how NO ONE should EVER use their services (Not that they actually PROVIDE ANY ANYWAY!!!)

One of our local news stations has '6 On your side!' (Channel 6 news) and they will publically humilate the company that screws you over!!! I mean, they will 'try to get the company to make amends OR Warn other consumers' yeah, that's what i meant.

I'm glad your a/c is finally repaired. Many happy arctic nights to you and your kitties.

If its so hot...why knit??????...I don't get it. But then again my testicles have drained the blood from my brain.

Little suggestion: when looking for a "new man" throw "air conditioner repair" into the list of qualifications.
