renter woes

[cornerofmadness]

FINALLY the landlord comes down to replace my bad heating element in the hot water tank. I've only been asking since Jan. SOme days it's hot, some days it's cold. I know it's because we have uber-hard water and the calcium is all over the element insulating it (which also raises my electric bill and is bad for the environment in general). So he's in the closet flipping switches going 'hey why don't you have a washer/dryer in here.'

Hello, we've HAD this conversation 100 times. You made the closet too small and they both don't fit. So where do you do your laundry. At the laundromat. WHy don't you use the one i have here for the cabins/tenters....because i didn't KNOW it existed (and at this point I don't want you to have any more of my money)

They show me the element. If you've never seen one, the heating element is U-shaped and metal. THis looked like a rock lollipop. God. I DRINK this water. What does my kidneys look like? (even with my brita filter)

So hours later I realize he flipped off the breakers to my microwave AND my bedrooms (there goes everything on my computer. thank god I had saved everything). THe damn breakers would NOT work. I go up to landlord's house and tell him. Like 40 minutes later he comes down there with a buddy (how is this a two person job) And he flips it once and everything comes on. (screw you too life)

Kyo also didn't seem to realize that when I laid down on the couch to watch what I recorded last night that it wasnt' an invitation to sleep under my chin and got very mad I didn't want to be breathing in his fur.

like i told dad tonight, he's fed, he's clean and I don't make him use a bed room filled iwth filth as his potty (like the people who originally had him)

And for a kitty, that's enough. So much simpler than humans.

so long as I'm paying attention to HIM. if not, there's hell to pay

you can't really expect a cat to understand that there may be things more important than him, can you?

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

see ROy seems to get that (either that or he likes his space and wants me out of his face)

[chaos-by-design.livejournal.com]

I'm thinking the latter.
