Default Great. Smells like a gas leak in our basement at work...

now I have to wait for some schmo from PSE&G to come look at it. So I call their "emergency" response line at 4:30, and they tell me...."someone will be there by 6". I said, "isn't this the emergency line? Someone can't get here sooner than that?" and the guy says "yes, but you can't expect the technician to just drop what they're doing and come to your location." So my response, in the most sarcastic tone ever, was "uhhhhh isn't that the definition of an emergency?"
Actually the smell isn't that strong...the emergency is that I want to go home.

I hate everything right now.

If I were smart, I'd light a match, blow the joint up, and have the next year off.
