You may remember that my pipes froze a lot this winter, and that the kitchen was freezing. We eventually discovered a big hole in the wall behind the water heater.

I was dreading my Hydro bill. I finally got a meter reading card, filled it out, and anxiously sent it in. Hydro just called and they say the reading doesn’t make sense, and they have to send a guy to confirm it. I said “no, it’s probably right. I was expecting an enormous electric bill”. She said “I’d like to enter the reading, but it’s so big the computer won’t take it”.

This is gonna hurt. I wonder if I can petition my landlord for assistance in paying the bill?
