I wasn't quite like you..but my heater in my condo broke down and I didn't get around to having it fixed for 1.5 yrs. I simply was in a cooler home during the winter, but not freezing. He figures I was lucky enough my place relied on ambient heat from rest of building!

We were happy to do many bike rides between each other's homes or subway rides. smile
