Nao Aqua Quente

This weird contraption located in our laundry room is the Brazilian version of an apartment water heater. Usually, life is good. We have hot water even when we are running steamy showers in three bathrooms at once. Today though, I hate this machine.

It died. I have been waiting for the repairman for two days now. He was supposed to be here today by 1:00. It is now 1:17. I hate Brazilian time...which is whenever we feel like it.

This morning, Ro, Hannah and I took pioneer showers. We warmed up water on the stove and then used a pitcher in the bathtub to clean up. Jackson the renegade is still stinky. He is down playing basketball now. Maybe nobody will notice.

6:00 p.m. UPDATE: He came. He fixed it. Jackson showered. Phew!!
