Buuurrr! and the burner solution

It's true, LA has made me such a wimpy little baby when it comes to weather, but I've always hated the wind! Today i had an epic battle with the Santa Anna winds opening my apartment windows. Having an old apartment is like having an old car, there's a lot of maintenance involved! I thought i would just be able to move into this cute little building built in the 1920's and set up a cute little place and leave everything else to the maintenance people. I was sorely mistaken.. Maintenance people don't care that your toilet doesn't work after two months of repeatedly trying to fix it, they don't care that the previous tenant painted over the windows with black paint, they don't care that the heater doesn't work, and most of all, they don't care that the windows don't latch all the way... I mean, it's never that windy in LA to blow open the window repeatedly making it impossible to heat up the apartment right?

I love my apartment, no really, I'm really proud of all the work I've done on it. I'm no handy man, but I really do try!
