The furnace was fixed at about 5:30 this evening. Today was the first time that I felt like the Griles team was not all they should be. The guy was late, first of all, and secondly he did not have the necessary tool to put together two parts that he brought with him. They told me beforehand that they were going to do this assembly at the shop.
He and I spent about a half hour searching my house for allen wrenches. Everything I could find was either too big or too small. At one point I found myself apologizing because I couldn't find one the right size, and then I was like "why am I apologizing? He's the one who didn't bring the damned tool!" Except I didn't say that out loud.
Finally we found one the right size, in this little box of weird wrenches that I have for my computer. The only problem was they weren't L shaped like the typical allen wrench. They were little tiny tips that you fit onto a long handle. Like a screwdriver. But the handle didn't fit inside the part that he needed to tighten. So he had to use the little tiny tip by itself, and use pliers to turn it. Which I guess I shouldn't gripe about, because at least it worked.
So anyway, we have heat. Yay for central heat! Do you know how wonderful it is to pee in a heated bathroom? I think civilization would not be possible without it.
