Fridge Apnea
So I’ve determined that my refrigerator has fridge apnea. Yesterday I noticed water dripping from the ceiling of the fridge compartment, as if something had melted from around the freezer compartment that shouldn’t.

Laundry scandals
I tried out a laundromat for the first time this morning, since the dryers at my complex have been wimpy, useless buggers lately.
