A quick post before my Internet cuts off again. A quick review of things that are not working in my house:
1)Hot water heater: the repair man has come twice now and and insists that the hot water heater is in "excellent condition". I would agree except for the fact that it takes one day off every week...
2) modem/router/???: something that makes me lose my connection to the Internet every 30 seconds. A tech guy from Guapo's company has come twice now in the past few days. When he left today, he told me everything was fine. It was, for an hour...
3) Washing machine: not working. This one is scheduled to get fixed tomorrow (but I'm not holding my breath)
4) Water filtration system: needs replaced. The plumber is now a no show for 4 days in a row. Time to find a new plumber...
5) In house phone (you know, that thing that the guards from downstairs use to call us in case we have visitors, or there's an emergency or something): after about 12 hours of working on it (I had to kick the guy out last night at 9 pm), it is still not working. Even better, he also messed up our land line that we got fixed last week...
Very, very sick of problems.
(Sorry for the typos, no time to check, I've to to publish before I lose my connection...again )

Sounds like you need to get away until all of these problems get fixed...but you would have to stay away permenantly wouldn't you since these issues are common there. Hmmmm...
Hang in there!
Ugh! I'm so sorry--I COMPLETELY feel your pain. You're afraid to touch anything else because it will explode or implode, don't know which is worse. One hour at a time...
hahaha, well. I'm right there with you on the washer!
water was just shut off , but it is back on again...
elevator not working, so only one for how many apartments?
vent away my friend :)

What in the world??
That totally sux, and all of those things failing you at the same time.
I hope it gets better.
Like soon.
So sorry.
Oh, girl. No hot water and flakey internet are seriously unbearable. Hope they get fixed soon!
