Ya think?

 

[Frood]

I downsized our fridge but moved to a larger chest freezer instead. There's 2 40 litre 12v camp fridges available in a spare room to expand for fridge/freezer capacity.

 

[Alticus]

It's extraordinarily gay.

 

[The Question]

Very.

 

[Jack]

they have those little wheelie things you can get to do it your self @C6

 

[Lily]

X do you have any riveting appliance stories?

 

[The Question]

Yeah, and I'm sure we have one here in the 'apartment complex' too. That'll be used. Probably still want an assist; if I'm luggin' that thing, might need a second set of eyes.

 

[Jack]

probably. You got stairs to navigate?

 

[Jack]

350 is a decent price for a new one that size

 

[The Question]

Nope, just the moderate lift up and over the bottom of the door frame.

 

[Jack]

should be a nobrainer

 

[The Question]

Yeah, should be. It'll be nice to have a refrigerator that can hold more than a few TV dinners and a handful else. I'll be able to do some legitimate grocery shopping.

 

[Lily]

Aren't you moving?

 

[Jack]

thats what I was talking about

 

[The Question]

The 'family' are trying to get me to go back to Iowa. Fuck. That.

 

[The Question]

The "town" (and that word applies so loosely that it's fallin' off) the rental is in is dying if not dead. Plus, the climate there is depression-inducing.

 

[Jack]

you been there, done that

 

[Lily]

So, you're not moving...I guess a fridge makes sense then.

 

[The Question]

The humidity here is 11%. In Ackley, it's 66%.

 

[Lily]

Holy fuck...that's god awful. The westher is far superior in the west

 

[Lily]

Holy fuck...that's god awful. The weather is far superior in the west

 

[The Question]

Yeah. I didn't even know I had arthritis until I moved there and the humidity triggered the fuck out of it.

 

[Jack]

Hi Flea

 

[The Question]

Plus, when you're legally blind, living in a place where you HAVE to drive to get to... fucking anything... is just a non-starter.

 

[Frood]

Large appliances suck

 

[Jack]

did you order the fridge yet TQ?

 

[Lily]

Yeah, you need things close by and public transportation

 

[The Question]

Not yet. Probably at the end of July. There are some other basics I'm past due to get in here first. Bed frame, dresser, thermal curtains (the front window of this "apartment" isn't insulated properly, and the landlady is too fucking cheap to pay a maintenance guy), and a handful of other sundries. Fridge at the end of next month.

 

[Jack]

cool beans

 

[Jack]

so you got a job, the disability $$ and a side gig now?
