Puddle of Me

Oh hai!
Yes, as a matter of fact I *would* like for my air conditioner to stop conditioning air right around the time that Satan decides to head back to Hell because Tennessee is getting too hot for his tastes. But, could you make sure that I come home to discover this right after Southwest leaves me on the runway broiling without A/C in a tin-can bacteria trap for 30 minutes, so as to make sure I have a massive head cold, can’t breathe, and have to blow about a gallon of snot out of my nose every 10 minutes or so? And if it’s not any trouble, could you also make sure no A/C repairmen can come out to take a look for at least 2 days, as I learn that the fine print around Hiller and every other company’s “24 Hour Service” apparently indicates that they don’t promise *which* 24 hour period they will come?
kthxbye!
update: woo-hoo! Repair Dude came a few hours early. Won’t have parts for proper repair until mid-week, but he was able to MacGyver it or some shit so that it will work in the meantime. House is already down to a nice chilly 93 degrees. And the repair seems reasonable, new capacitor and something about pressure, no hard sales pitch for a new system or anything like I feared. So, good on Hiller, seems like a company I can use again.
