Fridge Not Cooling? Don't Throw Out the Groceries! Common Refrigerator Fixes

Your refrigerator is one of the hardest-working appliances in your home, tirelessly keeping your food fresh and your drinks cold. So when it suddenly stops cooling properly, it can be a major inconvenience and cause for concern. Before you panic and start tossing out all your perishables, let's explore some common refrigerator issues and how you can troubleshoot them. And if you're in Gurgaon and need expert help, Repairo offers the best repairing services in the area to get your fridge back to its chilly best.

Check the Temperature Settings: Sometimes, the simplest solution is the most overlooked. Make sure that the temperature settings on your refrigerator and freezer are set correctly. The ideal refrigerator temperature is between 37°F and 40°F, while the freezer should be set at 0°F. Adjust the settings if necessary and give the appliance some time to cool down.

Clean the Condenser Coils: Dust and debris can accumulate on the condenser coils located either on the back or underneath your refrigerator, hindering its ability to cool efficiently. Use a vacuum cleaner with a brush attachment to gently clean the coils and remove any buildup. Doing this regularly can improve your fridge's performance and prolong its lifespan.

Inspect the Door Seals: A faulty door seal can allow warm air to seep into the refrigerator, causing it to work harder to maintain the desired temperature. Check the seals around the door for any signs of damage or wear. If you notice gaps or tears, replace the seals to create a tight seal and prevent air leaks.

Clear Blocked Vents: The vents in your refrigerator and freezer compartments need to be clear to allow for proper airflow. Check for any obstructions, such as food containers or ice buildup, that may be blocking the vents. Clearing these blockages can help restore airflow and improve cooling efficiency.

Test the Evaporator Fan: The evaporator fan is responsible for circulating cold air throughout the refrigerator and freezer compartments. If this fan is not functioning correctly, it can lead to uneven cooling or no cooling at all. Listen for the sound of the fan running when you open the refrigerator door. If it's not running, it may need to be replaced.

Professional Help from Repairo: If you've tried all the above steps and your refrigerator is still not cooling properly, it may be time to call in the experts. Repairo offers Fridge Repair In Gurgaon, with experienced technicians who can diagnose and fix any refrigeration issue. Whether it's a faulty compressor, a refrigerant leak, or a more complex electrical problem, they have the skills and tools to get your fridge back in working order.

Don't let a malfunctioning refrigerator spoil your groceries or disrupt your daily routine. With these common fixes and the help of Repairo's skilled technicians, you can keep your fridge running smoothly and your food fresh for longer. Schedule a repair service today and say goodbye to fridge woes in Gurgaon!

How Appliance Repair can Improve the Efficiency and Lifespan of your Appliances

Appliances play a significant role in modern-day households. They make our lives more comfortable, convenient, and efficient. However, like all machines, appliances can break down and malfunction. The good news is that appliance repair services are available to restore the functionality of these machines. Apart from repairing damaged appliances, appliance repair services can also improve their efficiency and lifespan.

One way appliance repair can improve efficiency is by identifying and fixing issues that cause the machine to consume more energy than necessary. For example, a malfunctioning refrigerator door seal can cause the appliance to work harder than it should, leading to higher energy consumption. Repairing the door seal can reduce the amount of energy required to keep the refrigerator cold, resulting in lower energy bills.

Another way appliance repair can improve efficiency is by maintaining the machine's cleanliness and ensuring that all parts are functioning correctly. Dirt, dust, and other debris can accumulate in appliances, leading to clogging and reducing their efficiency. Appliance repair services can clean out the appliances and fix any issues that may be affecting their performance.

Moreover, appliance repair services can replace old or damaged parts with new and more efficient ones. For example, replacing old and worn-out refrigerator coils with new ones can improve the appliance's cooling efficiency, leading to better performance and lower energy consumption.

When it comes to improving the lifespan of appliances, appliance repair services can play a vital role. Regular maintenance can help identify and fix minor issues before they become major problems that require expensive repairs or replacements. Repairing damaged parts or replacing them with new ones can also prolong the lifespan of appliances.

Furthermore, appliance repair services can provide valuable advice on how to take care of appliances and avoid common mistakes that can lead to breakdowns. For example, overloading washing machines or using the wrong detergent can cause them to malfunction. Appliance repair technicians can provide advice on how to avoid these mistakes and extend the lifespan of appliances.

In conclusion, appliance repair services can improve the efficiency and lifespan of appliances. By identifying and fixing issues that cause higher energy consumption, maintaining cleanliness, replacing old or damaged parts, and providing valuable advice on appliance care, appliance repair services can help households save money and enjoy the benefits of their appliances for longer periods.

S1E7: “Let Down Your Hair”—A (Watched 2/24/24)

“We’re not cops! We own a doggie wash!”

This one hooked me immediately and just got better from there: It starts with an obvious, goofy, classically amorous Cold Open Couple in the woods who get accosted by a violent weed-grower when they stumble onto his turf, but then that guy goes to investigate a noise and gets lassoed (and killed) by some very long, very thick hair. The physicality of the titular “hair” comes as such an arresting novelty after so many episodes of just facial transformations denoting monstrousness/fairy tale creature status.

There are also some very fun and interesting bits and pieces of world- building and deepening here—like Monroe casually establishing that the Santa Claus of the Grimm universe is actually a Wesen. Beyond that pleasing tid-bit, he also talks Blutbad childhood, socialization, and maturation, giving us some insight into what it’s like to be born and grow up as something more than human. The fact that this episode is about Blutbaden again, but with this feral long-missing child twist, rather than introducing another new, conveniently Rapunzel-like creature is great since, as I said, it “deepens” rather than “broadens” the established universe. The pattern of each episode introducing a new creature for Nick to read about and Monroe to explain casual-like was getting a bit bland.

The hair as a weapon, trees/a treehouse in place of a conventional tower, a lost rather than imprisoned girl—It’s a satisfying-enough adaptation of iconic Rapunzel elements. And there’s also something about this particular story of finding and struggling to communicate with this nearly nonverbal girl, protecting her from dangerous humans, and ultimately bringing her back to her mother after she was initially taken into the woods years ago by a neighbor that just feels more fairy-tale-like in its own right than any of the previous plots. The way that it kind of side-steps the exact nature of Jimmy Addison’s intentions for the extremely young Holly Clark also just feels much better than similar material in “Lonelyhearts.” It’s a grim (ha…) take, but it preserves enough of the whimsy and structure of a fairy tale to just feel Right.

While this is a very busy episode—to the point that half of the initial couple in danger is still technically left tied up in a basement somewhere, after being abducted by the grower’s brothers, when the story is over—it still has room for some great moments for characters other than Nick. Both Monroe and Hank get to have their time as characters in their own right: Hank as he returns to this emotional missing person case that he was unable to solve before, and Monroe as he tries to be a mentor, if not father figure, to a confused Blutbad child who can’t even speak, much less understand what she is. Hank in particular benefits here, as the character gets to go deeper than the joke-making sidekick for what feels like the first time, to me.

On a lighter note: The refrigerator repairman from “Danse Macabre” and his buddies spying on Nick because they can’t believe Grimms are actually real is extremely cute. I love how Nick is treated like the fantastical creature here from their perspective.

My ears are feeling significantly improved today. Yay! That means, after I return from pulmonary therapy today, I'll be spending time in my sewing room, cutting fabric for the new commission. It's a small one and will likely take no more than three days. Unfortunately, today is laundry day, so washing and shipping the commission won't happen until next week.

We have a dryer, but no washing machine. Laundry is done on Sundays or Mondays, depending on whether or not my husband has the energy to go to the laundromat. He's there for an hour, washing everything, then back home and we dry things one load at a time. Next year, we're hoping to purchase a Speed Queen washer seeing as those are built to last. They're the same brand that provides machines for most laundromats. The washer we had used died after just three years, bought brand new, and just five to six loads a week. The repairman who came over to fix it explained it's the same engine as the super expensive ones you find in most stores, and they're no longer built to survive more than five years, much like new refrigerators. He suggested a Speed Queen, and pointed out he doesn't get much work when folks use good stuff, but he would rather see people save money with good equipment instead of wasting money on something that will only break again and again and again. In our case, the water from washing flooded the engine, which is apparently a very common problem. Lovely.

Anyway, gonna finish getting ready seeing as we're leaving in less than an hour. Pics for the new piece will be posted either later today or sometime tomorrow.

YESS YESS YOU WATCHED KAJILLIONARE I NEED YOUR THOUGHTS

CHELS IT WAS SOOO GOOD!!!! I talked a little bit abt it on Twitter but I love old Dolio and Melanie so much… I like how they both have complicated and stifling relationships with their parents even though their situations are so different, and how Melanie has already managed to find her own way in life a bit and is independent, when it’s clear that before she moved her mother was controlling and a point of tension for her. I think that means she so easily sees how fucked up dolio’s relationship with her parents is and helps her move on from them because she can empathise with her on that level!

Dolio’s specific lonliness and sense of physical isolation from everyone and her own wants and desires made me so emotional. The scene where she goes to the new parents meeting and the speaker strokes her hair is so vulnerable… Dolio…. Also it really sharply contrasts with how her actual parents treat (or don’t treat) her. How could you say she doesn’t understand loving or tender feelings! She wants love so bad!! And when she is able and feels comfortable touching Melanie in the shopping centre in the final scene 🥺🥺🥺🥺 wahhhhhh! I just think Melanie is such a good advocate for Old Dolio to embrace her independence and support her in doing what she wants. Like she doesn’t have to go to their stupid birthday dinner! In what way ARE they your parents! Just because they’re your family doesn’t mean they own you anything and I think the sense of finality in that at the end is so lovely even if Melanie’s whole apartment got stolen. Which was crazy btw. But now she’s got a hot butch girlfriend so she doesn’t even care which is so real of you Melanie.

I like the foam dripping down their wall as part visual metaphor for what it’s like being poor part visual metaphor for being trapped with your family due to made up obligations/stress of family in general. I think Melanie being so far gone for this weird lady immediately is really cute (she winked at her at the airport! And then she did the fucking refrigerator repairman porn joke in the guys house Melanie you’re so amazing). THE NAILS SCENE??? AND WHEN DOLIO GAVE MELANIE THE TOOTHPICK…

In conclusion Evan Rachel Wood and Gina Rodriguez are really hot and I love gay women forever and ever amen. Dolio not being able to even physically look at Melanie at some points was kind of hot ngl. And FUCK the institution of family!

Thank u for the recommendation I will definitely have to do a rewatch at some point <3 :]

Starting to wonder where it ends with the Tumblr badges.

"Are you a sailor?"

"Are you an anthropologist?"

"Are you a refrigerator repairman?"

[aviculor]

Now that I finished rewatching Whole Cake Island and analyzing Katakuri's character, I'm going to talk about some stuff besides One Piece.

My A. bicoloratum is going to molt very soon. I'm not expecting to be able to sex it yet since it's only 1", but I'll take a look anyway. On the subject of my Aphonopelmas, my A. anax molted and my A. mooreae is digging an elaborate tunnel system.

The AC at my job broke Monday night, so Tuesday was not very pleasant. A repairman did come a few hours in, though.

My two separate Amazon orders came together. The box was opened, but it turned out to just be my sister's boyfriend being a dumbass.

I had to throw out a jar of pickled jalapenos because I did not take "refrigerate after opening" seriously and they'd been sitting there a long time. They became all soft and mushy.

The weather forecast for Friday is going to be pretty mild. I'm going to try to make it out to the nature trail, health permitting. It'd be nice if I could pick up some vanilla bean mochi and scorpion pepper Tabasco at the grocery store on the way back.

I have a surprise that's going to be revealed tonight at 10 pm EST

I hope the murder of Rachel Wood and armed raid of an innocent refrigerator repairman destroy Renard.

Second fill for @mungrovebingos !! This one was fun to write, so I hope everyone enjoys!! Ao3 link is here and the story is under the cut.

Prompt is "Broken A/C" and it's 3,048 words.

August in Hawkins brings with it the worst humidity that Billy has ever felt in his entire life. He’d finally gotten out on his own, but he didn’t have enough money saved to be able to head back to California yet, so he just got a tiny apartment above one of the shops in town and decided to work his ass off to get out there as soon as possible. And now, when he finally had a day off to relax, it was the hottest, muggiest day of the year. And his air conditioner had decided that it was the perfect day to just quit working.

Billy had always loved the heat, but right now, he felt like he was dying. He had stripped down to his underwear and was still sweating like a pig. He couldn’t even try to relax on the couch and watch TV because he was sticking to the leather cushions and it was making him itch. And when he finally ran out of cold sodas in his fridge (he would’ve preferred beer, but Max was making him cut back on that for his own good), he finally broke down and opened the phone book to call a repairman. 

It felt like hours before the guy finally showed up, just in time to save Billy from going crazy with the heat and shaving off all his hair to try and keep cool. He saw his van through the windows of the living room and heaved a sigh of relief, at least he wasn’t going to have to suffer much longer. 

Finally, the guy made it up the steps to Billy’s apartment and knocked on the door, and Billy opened it quickly, not quite understanding it when the guy on the other side smiled nervously and blushed. 

“Hi, I’m Eddie from Munson’s HVAC Services. You called about your air conditioner?” He said, trying very obviously to keep his eyes from wandering. It was only then that Billy remembered he was in nothing but his boxers, and it was his turn to blush, but he decided not to call attention to it if this guy wasn’t going to.

“Yeah, I’m Billy. The damn thing quit out on me this morning and I’m about two minutes away from locking myself inside the refrigerator, so I figured I should probably call someone to fix it,” he said, stepping aside to let the other man into his apartment. 

“Ooh, yeah, I can see why. It’s like an oven in here!” Eddie chuckled as he stepped inside, waiting for Billy to close the door. “But the good news is that when appliances just quit out of nowhere, they typically aren’t too hard to fix. I should be able to get it done pretty quickly, just show me where it’s at.”

“Yeah, sure. The control box is in the hallway and the actual unit is outside by the steps. It’s connected to the shop below, too, but I don’t think they’re having any problems. And obviously the vents are in the ceiling, so I don’t know where the problem is,” Billy said, showing Eddie around his apartment. He went over to the control box and looked it over, but he didn’t seem to see anything wrong with it, so he moved on to look at the vents. Billy got him a stepladder out of the laundry room and left him to his work, slipping away to his bedroom to actually put on some clothes.

He was feeling even hotter now as he pulled on his loosest fitting tank top and his breeziest shorts, and it wasn’t just from the clothes. He was absolutely mortified that he had forgotten to get dressed before the guy showed up, and it only made matters worse that he was so handsome. He had huge brown eyes and full, pink lips and pale skin framed by dark, curly hair. Most of it was tied up in a ponytail to keep it out of his face and off his neck, but a few strands came loose and hung around his ears. He also had bangs which covered his eyebrows just enough and a goofy, pearly-white smile that was cute enough to die for. And Billy had shown up to meet him covered in sweat, smelling like stale cigarette smoke, his hair frizzed to high Heaven and in nothing but his underwear. He wanted to smack himself.

But he didn’t, he just finished getting dressed and hoped the guy wouldn’t bring it up as he grabbed a book and went to the kitchen, choosing to sit at the table instead of the couch so he wouldn’t stick as badly. He poured himself a glass of water and, after a moment of consideration, another one for the repairman, who was still tinkering around with something in the vents.

“I, uh, thought you might like some water,” Billy said as he approached, offering the glass as Eddie stepped down off the ladder.

“I would, thanks,” Eddie said, flashing that smile again, “And I think I figured out the problem.”

“Oh yeah?” Billy asked, sipping his own drink as if telling the guy to go on.

“Yeah, it looks like there’s some screws loose in the vents, which made them disconnect from each other and is causing the cool air to escape into the ceiling instead of the apartment. Then it gets caught by the insulation so it never lowers down, and when the hot air rises up, it just turns that air hot, too. It’s kinda far in there, so I’m gonna have to climb in there to fix it, but once I do it shouldn’t take me long to get it fixed up,” Eddie said, glancing up at the vents again as he downed his water and handed the glass back to Billy. 

“That’s great, thank you so much,” Billy said, taking both the cups back to the kitchen and returning to his book after putting them in the sink. 

Ten minutes later, Billy felt a whoosh of cold air coming down from the vents, and he sighed in relief as he felt the apartment slowly start to cool down. He put away his book and redid his hair, pulling it back and relishing the way the cool air licked at the nape of his neck. He sighed again in relief and wiped some sweat from his brow as Eddie strolled in from the hallway, all smiles as he tucked his screwdriver back into his tool belt.

“All finished. It’s feeling better in here already,” he said, walking over to Billy.

“You are a lifesaver, man. I was about to go nuts, so thanks again for coming out. How much do I owe you?” Billy asked, shaking the man’s hand and smiling for the first time since his apartment became Satan’s back porch. It was met with another grin from Eddie, and Billy began to feel hot again, even though his place was pretty much back to normal by now.

“Actually, getting to see you open the door all sweaty and in your underwear was payment enough for me,” he said, placing his hands on his hips. “But if you really want to pay me, you could let me take you out to dinner sometime.”

Billy could almost not believe his ears. He didn’t know this kind of thing actually happened in real life, he thought it was only something that happened in the movies. But apparently it was real, and he had to admit, he wasn’t opposed to the idea. Eddie was attractive, and he seemed nice, and it was only dinner he was asking for, nothing else. So he got control of himself and smiled, crossing his arms over his chest and trying to summon up some of that old confidence he’d had in high school.

“I think I can swing that. Just tell me when and where,” he said, his cool (no pun intended) facade covering up the mosh pit of butterflies in his stomach.

“Here,” Eddie said, taking Billy’s hand and pulling out a pen, “Give me a call sometime and we can hash out the details. I’ve got a few more appointments today, but I get off at 6:00, so anytime after that would be ideal.”

He let go of Billy’s hand and tucked his pen back in his uniform shirt pocket, smiling still, but seeming even more nervous as Billy glanced at his hand. He’d written his number on it, and Billy smiled again as he looked back up at Eddie.

“I’ll call you around 6:30, then,” he said, his heart racing as Eddie began to fidget in front of him.

“That sounds good,” he said, then paused before adding, “And, uh, I know we kinda just met, but the fact that you want to go out with me makes me think that I’m not getting my wires crossed on this, and I learned my lesson before about not taking chances and waiting too long before, so, uh, please don’t, like, think I’m a creep for asking, but… Can I kiss you?”

Billy almost forgot how to talk, he was so stunned, but not in a bad way. In fact, it was the complete opposite of that, he was flattered and now that he’d been given the suggestion, he wanted nothing more than for it to happen. He finally found his voice and beamed brighter than the sun as he said, “Yes, I’d like that.”

And so Eddie kissed him, just a press of his warm, full lips on Billy’s own, short and sweet, but it felt amazing. Billy almost forgot himself and went to deepen the kiss, but held himself back and let Eddie pull away after a few seconds. Both of their faces were as pink as if they’d been sunburned, but they just smiled and laughed lightly at themselves before finally stepping back into their own space.

“I’ll definitely call you tonight,” Billy said, his fingers and toes all wiggling and tapping around as he tried to contain his excitement.

“I’m looking forward to it,” Eddie said, grabbing his things before going over to the door and waving. “Talk to you later, Billy.”

As soon as the door was shut, Billy finally let out all excitement he’d been trying to keep in by running to the couch and flopping down onto it, immediately picking up his phone and calling his best friend, Steve. He took what felt like forever to answer, but he finally did, and Billy barely gave him time to say hello before he was rattling off the whole story. 

“And then after he kissed me, I promised I’d call him tonight and he said he was looking forward to it and then he waved and said he’d talk to me later as he left. I honestly thought that this kind of thing only happens in the movies, but I guess not, because it just happened to me and I’m so fucking happy about it!” He finally finished, and he could hear Steve laughing on the other end of the line.

“Honestly, I thought when you first started this story that it was going to end up like a bad porno, and the fact that it didn’t means either you didn’t try hard enough or he’s some kinda prude,” Steve teased, making Billy roll his eyes affectionately. He loved Steve, but he could be such a bitch sometimes.

"Or maybe he just didn't want to seem like a dickhead, unlike some people I know," Billy teased right back, and he could hear the smile in Steve's voice.

"Are you referring to me?" He asked in mock offense, but only laughed harder as Billy said yes. "But no, seriously dude, I'm happy for you. And if he ends up actually being a dickhead, let me know and I'll kick his ass."

"Yeah, sure you will, Stevie," Billy deadpanned, but they both knew he was just joking. "But no, thank you for that. Although I seriously doubt I'll need you to. He's really handsome and he seemed really nice, so I think I'll be fine."

"People said the same things about Ted Bundy and Jeffrey Dahmer when they first met them," Steve said, and if Billy didn't know any better, he might've said that he sounded worried. "Just be careful is all I'm saying. And make sure to let me know when the date actually happens so that if you go missing, I'll be able to tell the police where you went."

"You really are the mom friend," Billy said, "But I promise I will."

"Good. And if it turns out that he's not a psychopath, I want all the dirty details as soon as you get home, okay?" Steve said, and Billy rolled his eyes again.

"Sure, Stevie. I'll talk to you later," he said, shaking his head with a fond smile as he hung up. 

Billy still called Eddie that night. He couldn’t help but be a little nervous, with all the terrible thoughts that Steve had put in his head, but he was also too excited to care. And really, just a phone call couldn’t hurt, right?

Eddie was perfectly charming and sweet on the phone, and they arranged the dinner date for that Friday night. That gave Billy two days to get ready, but also two days to wait. He was antsy the entirety of Friday morning and afternoon, and by the time it was time to start getting ready, he was about ready to bounce out of his skin. But he didn’t, he just got showered and dressed and did his hair, and called Steve one more time before leaving his apartment and heading to the restaurant to meet Eddie.

“Wow,” Eddie said as Billy approached him, “I don’t know which I prefer: You in your underwear or you all dressed up like this.”

Billy was glad that the sun had already begun to set, so that Eddie wouldn’t notice his blush. He had dressed up special, but Eddie didn’t know that, so it was nice that he still noticed. And he was looking good himself, perched against the side of the building and finishing up a cigarette while he waited. He had on a plain black button down, ruby cufflinks, a pair of black jeans and some ratty old converse sneakers. His hair was down today, and it reached down to just past his shoulder blades, clearly freshly washed and combed out into its natural waves. It suited him, and Billy almost couldn’t pry his eyes away.

“If that was supposed to be a compliment, then thank you,” Billy said, leaning next to him and stealing the smoke from Eddie’s fingers, “You ain’t lookin’ so bad yourself.”

Billy allowed himself to relish in the sweet little blush that came to paint itself over Eddie’s cheeks as they finished the smoke. They passed it back and forth until it was close to burning their fingers and then they tossed it into a trashcan, ready to head inside. 

Eddie was a perfect gentleman. He opened the door for Billy and pulled out his chair for him and made sure to fill the silence with conversation. He ordered them wine and told Billy to get whatever he liked, it was his treat. Billy argued with that one, but Eddie insisted, and he knew it was going to be a losing battle, so he didn’t even bother fighting it. Though he did thank Eddie up and down for everything. 

When they finished their dinner (which was amazing, by the way), Eddie held the door for Billy again as they left, and walked with him to his car to make sure he got in it okay. Billy had never dated anyone who treated him like this, and it was honestly amazing. Eddie had kept him laughing and talking all through dinner, paid for him, was going over the top with the shows of chivalry, and now was walking him to his car to make sure he was safe. Billy had never known that dating could be like this, and now that he’d had a taste of it, he knew he’d never be able to go back to the way it used to be.

“I had a great time tonight,” Eddie said as Billy unlocked his car door.

“So did I,” he replied, flashing a 1,000 kilowatt smile, “But I get to treat you next time. Y’know, if you were interested in there being a next time.”

“Of course I am. I’m always up for a next time, especially if it’ll be with you,” Eddie grinned right back, making Billy’s heart soar. It felt like it lifted him right up into the sky, and if Billy didn’t know any better, he’d have sworn that it actually had, because when Eddie kissed him again before leaving, it felt like kissing an angel.

“Drive safe, okay?” Eddie said as he leaned back, a goofy smile on his face as he did.

“Always,” Billy said back, his own grin spreading over his features. “I’ll talk to you soon, Eddie.”

“I’m looking forward to it,” Eddie said, waving over his shoulder, “Talk to you later, Billy.”

Billy was on cloud nine all the way back to his apartment, with its fully functioning air conditioner, and grinning like a fool as he flopped down on the couch and picked up the phone as soon as he got inside. He dialed quickly and it was picked up just after the first ring, the person on the other end saying, “Well?”

“Yeah, hello to you, too, Stevie,” Billy teased, but he kept on smiling. 

“Oh come on, you know I’m just eager. Obviously this guy isn’t a serial killer if you got home safe, right? So, you know what I want to hear. Give me the deets!” Steve exclaimed, entirely too excited about his best friend’s love life. But Billy told him everything anyway.

“He was such a gentleman, and he kissed me goodnight and everything! I really like him, Steve.” Billy said, twirling the phone cord in his fingers.

“Then I guess I only have one question left for you,” Steve said, his tone oddly serious. “When do I get to meet him?”

Why Professional Appliance Repair Services Are Worth the Investment

There’s no denying the value of hiring appliance repair providers to fix your broken appliances. Having a skilled repair specialist come in and fix your broken refrigerator, dishwasher, washing machine, or any other home appliance may save you time, money, and worry in your everyday life. Here are four reasons why hiring a professional to fix your appliances is a good idea.

Quality American Appliance Repair – Appliance repair technicians have spent years honing their skills on a wide variety of models. This ensures that your equipment will be fixed in a timely and secure manner by someone who knows what they’re doing. Plus, they have an inventory of replacement parts to get everything done in no time. In addition, most competent technicians provide guarantees on their expert repairs, so if anything goes wrong after they’ve been made, they’ll return at no extra charge to fix things right. ‍

Rapid Response Times – Hiring a qualified repairman ensures that your appliance will be back up and running in the shortest time possible. In the event that a technician needs a component that isn’t in stock, he or she may usually get it swiftly from a source. In other words, the repairs will be finished quickly and you may go back to your life as usual. ‍

Cost-Effective Solutions – Expert repairmen are aware of how crucial it is for consumers to keep within their financial constraints while seeking service for their appliances. As this is the case, the majority of service providers provide free estimates before beginning any work. They may also be able to provide advice on how to solve difficulties while minimizing expenses because of their extensive knowledge.‍ ‍

Peace of Mind – When appliance repair specialists are in charge of your repairs, you can rest easy knowing that everything will be done as it should be, with no problems along the way. In addition, most specialists provide guarantees on their work, such as a 60-day guarantee or a 90-day satisfaction guarantee, so if anything goes wrong after the repair is performed, you won’t have to worry about shelling out any further cash.

joe keery he/him/cis man “ watch out , NATHAN 'NATE' HACKETT has crash-landed into roswell !! they look thirty years old and celebrate their birthday on march fifteenth. they are from reno, nevada, reside in the GREYSTONE COMPLEX and are currently working as an attendant at the lunar laundromat. one thing you should know about them is back in reno, his parents’ garage has his collection of comics and fan memorabilia – combined, they’re worth over $500,000. ” ( guppy, mst, she/her, 21 )

PINTEREST // SPOTIFY HEY, EVERYONE ! my name is guppy (or leila, but you can call me either) and i am twenty-one. i am about to study abroad in australia, but for the current time being i am in mst (mountain standard timezone). i will be playing nate hackett, who is a lover of all things comic books and punk/grunge music. keep reading for a bit more about him and his past!

–* THE PAST / PRESENT

nate is the second youngest of five children (two older brothers – brian & james, one older sister – heather, and a younger sister – beth) and was born/raised in reno, nevada. his dad has retired but owned his own appliance repair business. nate's mother was an emergency room nurse, but she has also retired. his parents now both live in a retirement community in north carolina so they can visit the beaches in the summer season. his eldest sibling inherited the hackett home back in reno, where nate's comic and fan memorabilia collection is stored.

since there were five kids in the hackett house, it was always kind of a whirlwind. there were always birthdays happening, friends tromping through the house, holidays with extended family, and fights over room/toy/clothes sharing. the one thing that nate had to himself was his love of all things geeky.

none of his other siblings shared his interest in various comic books, card/tabletop games, and movies. he was free to explore those interests all on his own.

every week, nate would use his lunch money to buy new issues of comics being serialized. he would draw, at first, by tracing the panels in comics that he found the most intriguing. he branched off to drawing his own heroes and villains, writing storylines for them, and stapling together stacks of printer paper he had turning them into "comics."

the same store where he bought his comics in reno also held various tabletop gaming nights where nate met many friends who shared his interests.

nate got his first job as a sophomore in high school at the comic shop, it was where he spent most of his time anyways so he might as well get paid to be there.

when it came time to decide on after high school plans, nate's dad was urging him to take on the family trade of appliance repair. already, nate's two eldest siblings were working on the family business. one had gone to technical school to become an electrician and the other had done training in general appliance repair while apprenticing with nate's dad.

his third eldest sibling had disappointed nate's mom and dad by leaving nevada and going out of state to study communications. they wanted to be a journalist, not work for the family's appliance repair business.

nate was about to disappoint them just as much, he applied not only for technical schools but out-of-state colleges as well. the university of new mexico gave him a hefty scholarship, and the opportunity to study visual art, but to appease his parents he chose instead to go to central new mexico community college to study heating, ventilating, air conditioning, and refrigeration (HVACR).

he loved new mexico so much, though, that he made the decision not to return home after completing his associates. his parents were upset at his decision, but were still proud of the fact that he had chosen to pursue the family's trade with appliance repair. he made the move to roswell after living in albuquerque from the time he was 18 to the time he was 24. while in albuquerque he was working as an appliance repairman but he honestly hated having to constantly zip around from house to house everyday just to do his job. he made the decision that he wanted to work somewhere stable.

when he saw the lunar laundromat in roswell was hiring, he thought it was the perfect fit. he had the skills to fix the washers and dryers when they went down, but he was also could sit at the counter and read comic books during the downtime he had. he could also work on drawing his own comic.

currently his paycheck goes to four things: rent/bills, groceries, comics, and art supplies.

he still does some freelance repair work for extra cash on the side. but, you'll mainly find him at either the lunar landromat, forbidden planet, or at home.

personality wise: nate is real geeky, he appreciates a good pun and rarely takes anything seriously. he will gladly ramble on and on about anything and everything that is related to his favorite subjects (art, comics, magic: the gathering, pokemon cards, the star wars franchise, the warner bros monsterverse, and other weird old movies)

his favorite color is a red-orange, he frequently wears his red-orange windbreaker and a las vegas 51s baseball cap. he prefers dc to marvel, especially because his favorite series is swamp thing. he is most proud of the fact he owns swamp thing #1 with a 9.6 certified guaranty company (cgc) rating. this means it is in near mint condition and alone is worth approx. $1k. he also has a personalized autograph from len wein (the original writer of the series).

he frequently drives to comic cons in the western states (primarily CO, NM, AZ, NV, and CA). for his 18th birthday, his parents bought him VIP passes for san diego comic con which was like his dream come true.

–* POSSIBLE CONNECTIONS

since i know it can be difficult to find some connections off the bat here are some possible suggestions to get ideas flowing. i am also a fan of just starting threads and seeing where muse's chemistry goes.

D&D PARTY MEMBERS / we already know what a huge nerd nate is, but if your muse is also a nerd i am sure nate would love some party members for a d&d group in roswell. rather than an actual dining table, nate's apartment has a board game table. he just eats on his couch instead and uses the board game table for get togethers with the party. this doesn't have to be exclusive to D&D, but could extend to MTG and/or pokemon

FREQUENT FREELANCE CLIENT / is your muse prone to accidents? constantly blaming mercury in retrograde for their fridge breaking or their AC unit leaking? nate is happy to help, for a small price or a gift card to the forbidden planet so he can buy the latest issue of that one comic he's reading.

LAUNDROMAT PALS / since it takes at least forty-five minutes to get a small load of laundry washed and dried, nate is happy to entertain and talk to customers as they wait for their clothes to finish up. if you're real nice to him, he may even give you a detergent pod for free so you don't have to risk a couple of quarters at the janky dispenser.

EMERGENCY CONTACT / since nate's family is all out of state, it could be useful to have a ride-or-die who he can call at any time for anything. he definitely has broken a couple of fingers or slipped while jamming out too hard to the chats while in the shower. who you gonna call? nate's emergency contact!

@asundered / nick: he's nice because he wants to fuck you.

Well, aren’t I just a Southern Belle! Mr Repairman, I think my refrigerator’s on the blink again! Gosh, how will I ever repay you? Enter stage left: A fuck-me teddy and a pair of fuck-me heels. Newsflash, Nick: Everyone wants to fuck me. 

Dear Diary, my husband flew off the handle in a jealous rage over the refrigerator repair man. I just don’t know if I feel safe in the house with him anymore...

What? Don’t look at me like that. He’s giving me all the fuel.

“He doesn’t want to fuck me, Nick.” How did the world end up run by men? Did you know that the word hysteria comes from the Greek word for uterus? Women look crazy, men erect statues of their pals in some paltry game of circle-jerk. 

“Some men can just be nice for the sake of it.” I know he’ll bite at that. Some men. Not all men, and certainly not my man. Nick acts best when he knows there’s a blowjob sitting at the other side of whatever mundane task I set for him. Take out the trash? Blowjob. Clean the kitchen? Anal. Get your life together? Well, baby, you could have it all.

“I don’t appreciate that tone. I just got him some lemonade. Southern hospitality, right?”

Take me back to New York. His mom is dead. His twin’s a fucking powder-keg in five-foot boots. His dad’s everything I can see him becoming if he doesn’t watch his fucking tone and lets loose one more stupid fucking bitch. This place isn’t good for him, reader. Don’t tell me you can’t see that.

We would thrive in New York — we did thrive in New York. There were no jaunty repairmen who mop sweat from their brows when they march up the three-step porch stairs and adjust the belt that’s keeping in their lopping belly. I want my life back, and I want my husband back. I don’t feel like I’m asking for all that much.

“Maybe he’s used to sexually frustrated stay-at-home wives. You can’t crucify me for that.”

I don’t think all our issues can be fixed with a nice, hard fucking. Mostly because right now, I don’t think Nick is up to the challenge. But I want him to try. Just try. Fuck me. For once in your miserable, Midwestern life, figure it the fuck out and remind me that I’m your wife. Not the polystyrene kebab box shoved into the bottom of the kitchen trash.
