Apparently, though we've been paying rent monthly which includes utilities, our landlord hasn't been paying the utilities. So, my Monday morning has begun with a fight with an Edison worker who just shut off our electricity. It's a very cold day, and I'm in a panic hoping the heat in my room holds until we get the power back on, for the sake of my ball pythons.
I just love untrustworthy landlords who take your money and screw you over. Apparently, this has been happening for months, but we haven't gotten any notices from Edison because they are sent to the landlord. He owes $1795 on the electricity alone.

Just need to vent
