I am definitely not a patient person.
My entire life I’ve been chomping at the bit to accomplish some important task, it seems.
Even if the anxiety and immediacy is largely imagined, I feel like I’m always ramped up to go, go, go! I really do not do well with things like waiting in lines, enduring slow desk workers, or sitting around waiting on someone else’s schedule. I just like to get in, get out, and get the rest of my life underway. That’s why it’s been so difficult to wait and fix my HVAC system the responsible way for the past year or so. Rather than running off and hiring the first emergency HVAC service in town, I chose to put off the big cooling system repair for the past 5 months now. When my AC unit first failed way back when, I was very tempted to rectify the problem with a quick phone call, but I knew that a full cooling system replacement was going to be necessary. For once in my life, I stopped and considered the immediate timing of the situation, and decided that the HVAC replacement would be very costly in the middle of the summer season. I vowed to wait until Fall to have my cooling system repaired, when the seasonal sales on AC units would be in full swing. It’s been a hot and sweaty summer, but the payoff will be worth all the trouble. I already have my HVAC appointment lined up for 9am on the first day of fall, September 21st, and the cooling technician better not be late.
