I was standing by the fridge with the door open trying to cool my body.
The heat had reached degrees that I had only experienced in a odd geographical area.
Calling for air conditioner maintenance had become impossible since calls to any Heating and Air Conditioning company were not going through, and the one that went through, the receiver on the other end of the condo services provider would only offer an apology as every a/c worker was out in the field. It was all my fault. I had a quality Heating and Air Conditioning component but I had neglected it and never bothered with Heating and Air Conditioning maintenance. It seemed that the A/C system had enough of my maltreatment and had hit back when it hurt most. I was perspiring buckets. In my misery, I remembered a friend who works as an Heating and Air Conditioning professional. She had taken it upon herself to teach me more about my a/c but I dismissed him saying that I was not interested in a lecture on Heating and Air Conditionings. I had only said it as a joke, however now I only wished I had learned a thing or two, and maybe I could have fixed the A/C and improved the air quality even temporarily until the next Heating and Air Conditioning professional would be available. I took a shower, however the minute the cold water dried, I was back to perspiring again. The last call gave me a little hope, however even then, I had to wait a whole twenty-four hours before I could have my component fixed. I had learned my lesson the taxing way. As the tech worked I asked him about the air duct and what I could do to help with indoor comfort. He told me to check the air duct and to update the air conditioner filter properly.
