The last apartment I was in, I had AC but never used it. A whole year, and I didn't need to use it once for weather-reasons. (I did run it once when I used the self-clean on my oven.)

I move to an apartment with no AC, and TWICE IN TWO WEEKS, in the middle of FALL, we have heatwaves! Arg.

It's currently 93 in my apartment, at 5 PM. It's been 90+ for hours now. I really just want to cry at the apartment choices I made.

Related to that, the complex sent out an email:

Now that we are getting closer to being able to release our last two buildings it would be great to get a "Yelp" from all of you. For everyone who post's a Yelp Review about how great it is to live at [complex] a Starbucks Gift Card will be presented to you when your review posts!

The last two buildings. Where I was supposed to move into. More than two weeks ago. Which they first promised to be done in a week. Then two weeks. Then "two weeks but no promises". Do you really, really want me to post a Yelp review right now, complex? I do not think you do.

Oh dear, I don't think it would be quite the review they'd be looking for. I don't like heat very much, I'm hoping it cools off soon for you.

I sympathize, we've had beautiful cool weather in the last week or two, but today it was hot and muggy again. I sweat buckets closing the pool. The irony wasn't lost on me.

Heh! I just read your pool closing post, and I was thinking of how nice it would be to go for a swim.

We haven't had cool weather yet, just not-hot. I'm really, really looking forward to cool.

Yeah, that is not the time to ask you for a positive review...

The idea of it makes me laugh. And I don't even drink coffee, too!

It's like the lady at your work who wanted the feedback survey, but only with questions that forced a positive response!

IT'S CONTAGIOUS.

Ugh. I am sorry to hear it about the heat. I feel like there is nothing worse than being hot at home, at least when you're cold you can make tea and bundle up, when you're hot there's only so much you can do.

Yep, that's just how it is. The Starbucks reward card is only for "a Yelp Review about how great it is" so must say something about how great it is! Honest? Who cares about that.

90+ inside?! That sounds miserable.

It's 91 inside again today, so I can tell you for sure it is miserable. Where is winter!

Oh man. I couldn't take that!

WTF this is beyond ridiculous. I can't believe they still don't have you moved in to your actual apartment yet. Honestly, I feel like you could go find a new place to move in to and break this lease without consequences because they didn't hold up their part of the bargain! Just awful!

You read my mind! I'm going to visit a new place tomorrow. And they're the ones who broke the lease, so I should be able to get out of it without fee. Fingers crossed!
