Joys of Home Ownership

My furnance is broken. They came out to service it back in September, and it stopped working Friday. They came out, verified I had plenty of oil, putzed with it and it was working again. Came home this evening to a cold house and the reset button again doesn't work.

Of course now that it's the weekend, it they will charge me double if I don't wait until Tuesday. It is 50 degrees in the house right now. The soonest they could be here is sometime in the morning.

Of course I discover this after pretty much everything is closed, but thankfully [livejournal.com profile] loree had an electric space heater I can borrow to take the chill off my bedroom. Yeah for living only 5 minutes away from my bestest buddy. Booh for fix-it people who don't really fix it.
