Low expectations

They finally fixed the light in my kitchen. Still on the list is three other things, not counting the gate out front which does not lock and has not locked for at least 3 months, I am told.

But my reaction to learning that I had a working kitchen light was along the lines of "yay! I have a light in my kitchen! And it works!" As though I was somehow special for having this.

My expectations are so low that when the landlord texted me, saying that the water would be off for a while today because of something involving plumbing, I was thinking to myself, "oh, today's a no water day. I can work with that"
