Comfortable Climate Control

Here at my new apartment complex, all utilities are included in the rent. Water, trash, and yes... even electricity. And for this, they charge a premium.

However, it seems that the management has figured out a way to pull a fast one on it's residents. You see, they control the gi-normous heat pump system and air conditioning system in the center of the complex. And when they deem that the temperature outside is cold enough, they'll cut off the air conditioning. For everyone.

Now, this is all fine and dandy assuming you like sleeping in a 75-80 degree room. But I don't. I like sleeping in a 68-70 degree room. Call me spoiled. But I know how I sleep best, and I'm paying for a climate controlled environment, dang it.

Luckily, I brought my window A/C unit along with me from Texas.
