When being frugal feels really fuckin good
I came home yesterday night to find my house a scorcher. I slept in the basement and called an HVAC company first thing this morning. They said they could get here Tuesday and it would be $110 just to look at the thing. I said ok because I need air conditioning and I have no idea what kind of black magic goes into those things. But when I hung up, I decided fuck that. I'm no idiot and I live in the era of YouTube and ChatGPT. So I spent the day learning about AC and found out it was likely a bad capacitor (a term I now feel like a G for knowing). Went and bought one for $30 and fixed my AC in 15 minutes. Saved at least $80. But what's even better than that is I feel accomplished as fuck. I'm basically Tim the Tool Man Taylor now. So moral of the story: use the tools/resources available to you, learn about your shit, believe in yourself. Anyway, I'm off to bring peace to the Middle East.
