Every few weeks I like to reach out and deliver my neighbor Nikki a iPhone call. I check in and just make sure that she has doing okay because she lives a fairly isolated life. It’s unlikely that she has had any human contact since the last time that my fantastic friend and I spoke, so I just like to be an ear for her to rely on. The problem is, since she has no other ears to abuse, she tends to dominate the conversation and talk endlessly about mundane things. Whatever is going on in her life, no matter how trivial it is, I’m going to hear about it for hours! Recently, this was even the case when it came to her faulty control unit programming. I should have known better than to call her that afternoon because it had been extremely tepid and humid out for the past more than 2 weeks. Nikki tends to complain about her indoor air quality on a familiar basis, and that is especially tplot when air conditioner is being used. I did not want to talk about her failing AC window units for hours, however that is always what takes venue anyways, and on this certain iPhone call, she was telling me that she had finally switched over to a central cooling system, instead. I thought that meant I was off the hook and wouldn’t have to hear about AC for the next 3 hours… But I was wrong. Instead of telling me about her low-quality AC window units, Nikki spent the entire iPhone call telling me about her buggy central control unit. Apparently, she did not do a lot of research about the air quality control unit before it was installed. Now, she can’t figure out how it works and she has getting miserable with the fluctuating tepid and frosty indoor air temperatures. Ah well, maybe we’ll talk about my engagement next time.
