Lizard contact
Returned home Friday from various places to discover that the A/C was not on in the main house--or rather, was blowing hot air.
The second side, with the bedrooms and W's office, was doing fine. We called this in, and found out our new A/C person, who had installed the thing, thought we hadn't moved in and had sent us bills we never received. Since I've been parked in front of this house for nine months, I don't know what planet they've been contacting, but this has been remedied. The old A/C guy would get the biz, but he lives south of the river and it's a long haul.
It took them until Tuesday evening to get here. The owner himself showed up--nothing like the first hot snap to show that your A/C is Not Happy. They're buried in phone calls, of course. The man was practically staggering, he was so tired.
Fortunately for him and for us, it was an outside unit thing, not an attic thing. An anole decided to take up residence in our A/C unit--in the contact. Poor little anole did not survive his flirtation with EMF. He was a $65.00 anole, by the way--but if his brother comes looking for him this summer, no extra charge on that unit. We have two units, just to make things interesting, of course.
I've had a queen ant set up housekeeping in my A/C unit once (when we pulled the unit door to have it serviced, there were zillions of ants screaming "Incoming!" and running off with white eggs) but never an anole.
Blessed A/C. I really appreciate it. If I ever have to give it up, I'm going on "South of the Border" time, as in, eating and working after dark...
