New York - Winter

 

“The toes on my right foot are numb when I wake up this morning. It’s 43 degrees in the apartment. We haven’t had gas since Monday. A broken pipe, a flooded basement, a very cautious gas company. As of this morning, it’s still not on. My back is going into spasms as I eat breakfast and get ready. I want a shower. Oh yeah, no hot water. Lovely.”
