I'm hot and I'm in a REALLY bad mood [Archive]

This weekend usually marks the start of summer.  After a very mild Spring, where it never got too hot or humid, today was the first day that summer marked it's return to the NYC Metro area.Since I am in a money conservation mode, I hadn't even touched the thermostat from hot or cold since April.  It had been just that nice.My girl and I had been redecorating the house, trying to give it a feel that signifies both of our tastes... we hung up a poster of the first amendment, panaromic shots of GIants and Yankees stadiums, and pictures of us, our families, and people we care about.I had noticed how warm it was getting in the apartment, and I checked the thermostat - the interior temp was 82 degrees. Time to turn on the AC! So I cranked it up.  I heard the fans come on, and we closed all the windows. An hour later, I noticed I was still sweating. The thermostat still ready 82.  Uh-oh. I walked outside of my unit - and realized that my apartment's AC unit wasn't running. AAAAAAARGH!!!! This sucks.  It looks like my AC is broken.  (Either that, or someone forgot to power it back up when they did maintenace earlier this month)  I had to go over to my parents' house, and rummage through the basement for some fans to put near the windows to get some air circulating.  This STINKS.

Turn a negative into a positive.Walk around all day in a towel so you feel like you're at a sauna.  But here's the thing, you're not paying to be in a sauna!  IT'S FREE!!!

Hot, nasty sex always helps. Either that or a nice RC Cola with tons of ice. Try them in tandem!

I was talking about this tonight with mikeyboy. We both have railway apts. I put the AC in the living room. It's where I sleep in the summer because the "good" TV is there. The "middle room" where I keep my computer gets to be hotter than hell. It's no fun. I like to be on line but I sweat like a whore in church.

Last night I stayed downstairs (where it was much cooler) well past my bedtime. Plus I was watching the 40 Greatest Metal songs on VH1 Classic. I'll get to that in Fuzzy's Metal thread, later.Anyway, anyone who has ever lived in a cape can tell you, upstairs is hot as balls! I did not get a chance to put in the window AC units. I only have small window fans running right now. I tossed and tuned and sweated until about 1:30. Finally fell asleep. Only to wake up 3 more times during the night. Then BAM! 6:00. Time to get ready for work.Fuck You Heat!

I was out all day yesterday and had the Central Air cranking.  When I got home, it was 71 upstairs in my house.  I had to sleep with a comforter.  Fuck the Ozone Layer.  My AC stays on from May to September.

I'm convinced that the AC problem is an electrical issue, that one of the fuses is blown. However, I've never changed a fuse before (absentee father growing up, let's not get into it), and doing the research on the internet is bringing up nothing. I'm not even sure which air conditioning unit and matching fusebox is mine!

Explanation: I live in a four apartment unit.  Two of the units are currently vacant.  So there's three AC units that aren't running, and one that is. If maintenance doesn't fix this tomorrow, I'm going to be... EVEN ANGRIER.

If they are less than 30 years old I would think that you would have circuit breakers instead of fuses. Breakers are a lot safer to check and fix. Just like flipping a switch. Just find the circuit breaker box, look at all of the breakers, all of the "switches" should be "flipped" in the "ON" direction. (Usually toward the center of the box) If one is in the "OFF" direction, the circuit breaker is blown (no homo). Simply flip that one back and your circuit should be all better. Of course, if the circuit breakers are labeled, it is even easier

For some reason the AC is not working in my room, and it's in a place in the house where it gets the suns direct rays almost all day.  It reached the high 90's here in northern Virginia yesterday and I was fucking dying.  And sleeping...forget about it.

well, the bedroom a.c. was a new unit - shoulda read the directions.  I didnt have the unit lean back slightly.  Turned it on and went out for an hour - when I got back, I noticed a steady drip of water off of the front of the machine onto my bed.  Yech.  Moved it to another window, and propped up the front so it drains out.  aaaah comfort.

my new apartment hasnt been so bad so far, but we'll definitely have to get an AC this weekend.  we live close to the water, so we get a nice breeze, and the bedroom has 3 huge windows and a ceiling fan.  but it's never fun to sweat your balls off and have no way to cool off.  Usually a nice cool shower would help me out when i didnt have AC, and sleeping naked.

The super came over today, deeply apologetic.  Apparently, the leasing office never told him about the problem until THIS MORNING. He gave me his direct cell phone number, just in case. And the problem was the flux capacitor inside the AC unit itself, not the fuse.
