I don't know what the building's thermostat is set at, but the heater knob in the apartment is turned all the way up to 8 (as high as it goes). (That is all the control we have over the heat.)
I am fucking freezing.
The windows in my bedroom are closed and locked, and today I put the thermometer in there and closed the door all day while I was gone, so I could see what the temperature actually is in there. When I got home at about 6pm, I checked - 62 degrees. It has hovered around 62-65 in the hallway (where the thermometer usually is) for the most part since it got colder the last few days. Back in October, when we had a bit of a cold spell (in the 40s), it also didn't get above 64 or so. I called the office then, and they said someone would come look at it, but they never did (if they did anything that didn't involve coming up to the apartment, they didn't inform us).
Sitting in my living room right now, I feel like there is a window open. My roomate put up the Christmas lights on the balcony yesterday, and the cord comes through the sliding glass door to get to the outlet in the living room. Which makes the door unable to lock, though it appears to be closed (there is a bar in the bottom of the track to keep it from opening). I don't feel any air coming around the door, though (I do feel air coming in from under the air conditioner, though, a little bit).
Roomie, however, is not cold. She sleeps with her window open all year, because her room gets stuffy. I don't want to sit here shivering all winter under a blanket.
