We STILL can't get hot water at most times in the day. And if the water does warm up at all, it's to a barely tolerable lukewarm.
I'm getting to the edge of my patience here. This is unacceptable. Not to be able to take a hot shower in your own apartment? That's just bad news. For the second time in a week, I'm going over to my sister's for a damn shower. This makes me VERY sad and miserable.
Life here would be great if it weren't for the massive plumbing problems. 'Cause you know, not being able to get clean is pretty much an unliveable situation. I can't go to my sister's every damn night.
Aaaah...reminds me of when I lived in Ecuador. Pretty much two years of cold showers. And no, the fact that it was always 700 degrees outside didn't help. The closest we ever had to hot water were these electric shower water heaters that you actually plug in *while you're in the the fucking shower*! In one apartment, they didn't even have a proper plug, just two bare wires and a dirty, menacing socket. Damn, nothing like getting lathered up to be electrocuted. Funny I haven't gone back...
