I did mention that part about not having gas the other time. Well, come this Monday morning the gas company came by and checked the appliances. The stove and oven, the water heater BUT sadly not the furnace heating. Appears to be a problem with the valves to turn it off, meaning its a dilema.
We could leave the pilon on with the possibility of it going off in bad windy weather. Meaning if it happened at night, there is no way to turn it off unless someone crawls beneath the house and do it manually. Not me, no way.
So the pilon is off for now. We need a heating company to clean up, install some new tubing, etc. *sigh*
That just means "still" cold nights and my blankets. I'll survive. Taga-Baguio ini. Just as long as there's hot water in the tub to soak (which I'm contemplating doing often enough).

Speaking of gas, remember the other night (the most recent) that I went to the golden arches? Seems to be the drive though has been missing out on some guy's orders for a couple of months. He wasn't exactly mad, just furious. He said something in the lines of "it doesn't make sense that my gas is more expensive than my meal .... yet I have to come back". Way to go for consumer rights! Sana ganyan din sa Pinas no? Kaya lang selective eh.
