New Fridge Found to Operate Much Better Than Broken One

So in a repeat of the "boy this milk seems a bit warm" incident of a few weeks ago, our fridge decided to shut itself off some time early this morning, only this time it didn't turn itself back on in the afternoon. Props to Ridgefield Maintenance; they had a guy over less than a half hour after we called it in after work, and about ten minutes later a new fridge arrived. We figured it was just gonna be from the fridge pool somewhere, something that had been removed from someone else's unit and repaired, but it looks like this one has never been used. It's not exactly state of the art, but it's got a little more room and a much better layout on the inside, and it still had a sticker on the side. Our old fridge had some pretty heavy mileage on it, so the upgrade is pretty sweet. Really, the only downside is we had to chuck some food that got too warm for too long, but the grand total wasn't too bad. And now we don't have to worry if there will be any more warm milk incidents. All's well that ends well, I guess.

Even better. I wasn't feeling well so I wasn't watching the clock too carefully. They also offered to move the food from one to the other for us, but we declined. It's not like they came over and broke the fridge, and the speedy response was enough.

This isn't related to your fridge at all, but...
You said you'd be here on the 22nd?
That night I was planning on going to New Haven to the cigar lounge to hang out with some people.
What time are you planning on being here/hanging out?
I wanna get things worked out before I let down multiple people for not seeing them.

Heh, looks like a swing and a miss on that one. Hopefully you saw your friends in New Haven, cuz we totally failed at planning there. That's my biggest complaint about not being in school anymore; now when we're in Vernon it's for like 40 hours, not a week, so by the time you get over the "Oh hey nice to be back" it's almost time to leave, and half the time we forget/don't get a chance to see everybody.

Also, I really wish I'd noticed your post sometime before ten minutes ago.
