Potential Marathon

General
(I hate making whiny posts like this, but this is one of those cases where I think I need to bite the bullet.)
I think I made the mistake of chanting the words "Well, it could always be worse...."
Besides the cat bite (which is healing) and the minor medical bills involved with that, I woke up yesterday to find my air conditioner had stopped working. I live in Florida and the current daily highs are in the nineties. Consequently, this is not an issue I can put off if I want to not die of heatstroke. The tiny amount of sleep I got last night was horrible, so if I want to have any hope of being functional, I need to handle this.
The workmen are coming by hopefully today. From the symptoms, it could be something as minor as needing the refrigerant topped off and a leak patched to needing a whole new condenser. The former shouldn't be so bad, the latter could run a bit higher.
If the replacement turns out to be expensive, would folks be amicable to the idea of a video game marathon this weekend? I'm not asking for folks to cover every penny of my situation, but my savings are still a bit strained after the computer repairs last month. I'll be happy to do some multiplayer and other fun things.
This is all potential right now, but I thought I'd get word out now.
Also, there is a good chance I won't be streaming tomorrow. My health has been very negatively impacted by two days in a 90+ degree house (That's 30+ for you celsius folks) and I may need to take a break to try and recover.
The repairmen will be by soon, and I'll see about updating folks then.

here's hoping for the best in the end thought!
In the mean time, buy lots of ice cream (an excuse to abuse of ice cream, what do you want more? XD )
nothing worse than living in the south without a/c
keep us posted!
