Also, if you are at all familiar with New York City tenement houses, you will know about the anguish that is the middle of winter. Yes, it's the time of year when, to avoid lawsuits from letting old people freeze to death, the landlord has decided to pump up the heat so much that the inside temperature in my apartment is 82 degrees Fahrenheit.
So THAT'S why my building is boiling hot! :O This is the first winter I've spent in this apt, and I've had to turn off my heater and open a window because it feels like a sauna in here half the time. Sweet Jesus. I hate to complain because it's better than freezing, but at least now I know what's going on!
