Gas line? They don't build it like they used to. . .

. . . and its a good thing, because Nicor came out today to cut the old gas line for demo, and they cut the neighbors at the same time. Evidently, my gas service is a branch line off of the neighbors service. Yikes! Fortunately my neighbor is nice and understanding, so she isn't upset at me. Nicor is supposed to come out tonight to reconnect them. The next time the gas company complains about losing money, I'll have to remind them if this waste. The boys will be making double time tonight. Oh, I forgot, all costs get passed to the consumer, so it sucks to be me.
