Bosch's Heater

The heater makes the smoke detector wail.

Under circumstances that did not include a 52 degree rainy day, I could make a joke of that, but...well, I'm cold.  But mostly, the heater has just gotten me mad.  I have cleaned the filter, and,m if the heater would open more, I would more than attempt to eradicate the dust build up in the coils inside.  But the heater is against me.

And while I try to keep myself from going postal, and blaming the school for freakin' installing a heater that cannot be cleaned (one more reason to hate the school, right?), I look out the window at the chilly, rain soaked yard of the College of Idaho, I am reminded, almost violently, of Bosch's triptych, The Garden of Earthly Delights.  The outer painting depicts the world after the flood, which, obviously, should lead me to a post about God's love, but, rather, reminds me that things here at the school--They are going to get better.  I just gotta hold out.

And change my major to Art History.
