magidMy apartment has been consistently 63 for about the couple of days or so (I don't remember exactly when I noticed). The thermostat is not set for 63; I have it a bit cooler for sleeping and a bit warmer when I'm home and awake.
One theory is that it's the thermostat. Another theory is that the pilot light on the gas furnace in the basement blew out (the gas to the stove is fine, so it's not outside the building). Logically, I should check the furnace to see if the pilot light is on, light it if not, and get new batteries/new thermostat if it is.
However.
We've been having the basement remediated for mold, and the whole level is blocked off with plastic sheeting. No way to tell what's going on down there. (No way to do laundry in the building either, but that's less of an issue just now.)
I can usually deal with a bit of chill, but I'm finding it hard to deal with being cold and being annoyed at the damned alarm that's still going off next door. I hate feeling like I need to leave my home.
At least I won't freeze, even if I am cold. (I'm assuming I'm stealing the downstairs neighbors' heat as it rises to stay this warm). On second thought, I don't know that it's 63; all I know is that the theromostat says it is. And if it's the source of the trouble, then it's not necessarily reliable about the temperature, either.... Feh.
I wish I knew what happened to the fingerless gloves I used to have.

(Assuming the alarm-thing is off by then, of course ;-)
