Another Rant: Redux.

Good morning America.

Or rather not.

Then again it is 3:55 AM, when I began typing this up anyway.

It's a wonder why not many people give trust to others so easily, partly because of the reason that many individuals are fascist, hypocrites. Joy.

Today--or rather yesterday--I found out that apparently--despite the fact that mom had been on a payment plan--the gas was turned off and that we will not be having heat for possibly two months or more due to the incredibly, ridiculously high cost of gas. I mean it's now what, $600 a month? That's ridiculous. Fuel Assistance could not help us with that and only helped us with half of what they promised to give originally a month which is $300. Also, we were behind (and still are :/) on the gas bell--around $1200 to be exact. I swear they just shut off the gas because they want that us to pay in full--oh don't forget to add on the $200 turn on fee. Yes, that's right... turn-on fee.

No cooking on the stove (I absolutely loathe eating take-out, no matter how good it tastes :/).

No hot water.

No heating during the fucking winter.

This is going to be the greatest time of my life. Whoo hoo.

ugh. :(

Sorry to hear this Lumi :(. I can't even imagine what it'll be like to not to be able to cook at home and stuff. I hope it's a short couple of months.

I hope it's short as well.

That really sucks. *hugs* good luck with it and I hope it all works out for you.

-hugs back- Thank you.

Fuel companies are, historically, flocks of bloodless harpies. >_> Gah, sorry to hear this- am hoping you'll have the heat back as soon as possible.

You can say that again--it's probably the money that goes to their head and they lose their compassion. :/ I hope so as well.

I'm sorry. We actually don't have gas either. Similar situation.

-patted-

Really? D: Goodness, how long has it been?

About a week now? It's still summer so it's honestly not as bad as it could be, but it's incredibly annoying nonetheless.

[luminitrium.livejournal.com]

Damn that must kill. Not being able to take any warm showers at all. D: well I hope you will get your gas back soon. Those people can be such insensitive a-holes sometimes. :/

Yeaaah, it kinda sucks! And same to you.
