200

Ta da! Did you think I disappeared?? Well I did...kind of.

First things first, this is post 200! You know the deal, ask, and I'll tell. I would love to have you get to know me better.

The main reason I haven't written is because the computer died. How dare it?? Although it's a slight definite possibility that it's God's work, forcing me to get off the computer and start packing. Because after all, once it died, I got the whole house packed up, and today my sister, her boyfriend, my dad, and I moved everything into a storage unit. My journey to reunite with Stryker is beginning folks!

Let me tell you a little about the storage unit. I had been calling around looking for one when I saw the ad in the phonebook for the one I chose that said "heated". This was a requirement because, well, it's February in Wisconsin, and I have a pretty new washing machine that I don't exactly want to freeze up.

So I go, sign the contract, she give me the unit number, and I go and check it out. Yeah, it's cold in there. So I call and ask about the heat. Here's a recap of our conversation.

Kiki: Hi, this is Kiki, I was just there to sign the contract, and I'm at the unit and I'm wondering about the heat. Is there a place to turn it on, or how does it work?
Lady: Oh, I meant to tell you about that. It's not exactly heated...
K: Wha..?
L: Well, what did it feel like, because we've been having problems with that.
K: Cold, what is it supposed to feel like??
L: Above freezing.
K: Well that's pretty misleading, because the ad says "heated" right in it.
L: Yeah, sorry about that, I meant to tell you about that. So we're ok then?

Are you flippin' kidding me?? Yes, I'm glad you had me sign the contract and pay the money before I actually got to go see the unit and notice it's not really heated. By the way, how can a unit be heated without actually being heated? Does anyone have the answer? Because I'm stumped.
