When your municipal water is so over-heated I physically can't tell the difference between the hot and cold water even when I leave both of them running... your fucked.

Thank GOD I slapped extra-dark limo-black tint on the back windows of my car, or I'd probably have gotten heat stroke due to lack of shade when my fuel pump fried near as we can figure. [livejournal.com profile] talesin drove out and picked me up, sitting at the PS today.

And as a side-note on the water-stuff, I rented a hotel room while waiting for batty for somewhere to put my stuff, and got some sleep. When I tried to take a shower, spending more than five minutes on each of them I gave up trying to decider which unmarked knob was theoretical 'cold' and just took a shower. Both were the same temperature, and both were at least 20 degrees colder than the surrounding air I think.

So, there was ..no ice, at all? The ice machine was empty? Nothing was coming out of it?

If there was an ice machine...

...I couldn't locate it, and the fridge-freezer ice trays had been left bone dry. =-.-= I didn't exactly explore the motel in 105+ degree heat though, I hid in the AC'ed 70-degree room face-down on the bed and asleep until my ride showed up. :-)

Well, at least the AC was able to keep it a reasonable temperature. Thank goodness for small favors, huh?
