Cool With This Equipment Malfunction

So this past weekend I noticed something odd.

Cold air was coming out of the vents at the kkk Manor, but the thermostat was showing no signs of going down.

Oh let’s skip the foreplay. The Central AC unit died.

OMG WHAT AM I GOING TO DO IN THIS HUSSEIN RECESSION THE LITTLE GUY CAN’T GET A BREAK LIFE AIN’T FAIR WHY CAN’T SOMEONE BAIL ME OUT?!?!?!?

I had no idea how this could happen to me. When we got the heating unit replaced two years ago the repair guy said that our AC unit was on its “last leg.” How was I supposed to conclude that “last leg” would mean “two more good years?” Whatever am I going to do? It’s late September. The next time I’m going to really need AC will be in April/May, depending on how much global warming I can create now until next spring. What do you people expect me to do now — find out how much an AC unit costs, SAVE some money every month and then buy a new AC unit in the spring of 2011?

And where do you expect me to put this “extra money” — in an envelope?

And where do you expect me to place this envelope — in a safe found in the closet of the computer room?

And where would I put this envelope in the safe — next to the envelopes that have monthly deposits of cash in them for car and annual life insurance premiums and annual sewage payments?

Actually, it’s supposed to get hot this upcoming week. Guess the last laugh is on me. 😦
