I went to the depot and bought another space-heater, and used that and my two other heaters, and gave my electric heater-pad to the dog. I've been spending a lot of time in the shower, which is great since I like warm water and touching myself, but my skin is always pruney or dried out. I'd call maintenance but I don't want them to come over and see my motorcycle and evict me in the dead of winter like some kind of Dickensian orphan, fingers stained with candle-black and with whalebone rickets-braces on my legs. So I'll just endure the cold for a bit longer. Actually I'll probably save a mint on my electricity bill (over 300 dollars this past month). I could use the break on the bills anyway.
As a random thing I'll post a (sadly poorly-scanned) picture of me just before I went skydiving, just having turned 13 years old. My dad bribed the skydiving guy to let me dive since the age requirement was 16. But as you can see I was a very confident 13 year-old.
