Introducing: Willow, third of her name.

She will be joining me in mid June.

@lemon-fox Yeah, that and the bath tub are a hard pass. It was pretty big considering it's going to just be me, a cat, and a dog. And it was all hard wood floor, which I prefer with pets. But, I need to be able to feel clean for my mental health...

Finally got a hold of the leasing agent: "So you want to do the studio? Ok, let me make a call". <Ten minutes of silence> "Ok I need to walk this apartment I was just given, I'll call you right back after I walk it."

Two hours later:

Silence.

Eta: Meanwhile, after work yesterday I viewed an apartment where the bath tub looked like this:

I'm almost desperate enough to accept it. Except just being in the building for 15 minutes made my nose and throat itch.

@macha said in Real World Peeves, Disgruntlement, and Irks.:

@cobalt SO MUCH THIS. And it would be nice, if after you applied, they got back to you to tell you if they chose someone else.

Or if they listed what floor shit was on, etc etc.
(I may have spent a chunk of my weekend looking at apartments. )

I'm so frustrated because I can't get ahold of the leasing agent that took my application. I've left messages. Every time I call she's not there. And I've even left a message saying I would take one of the more expensive renovated studios over the non renovated one bedrooms.

At this point I've given up and started looking for places on fb. I need an apartment by the 1st of July. Just answer your goddamned phone -_-

Apartment hunting is exhausting, and I hate it. I just want a place to live. Would you answer your damned phone, rental office??

@ganymede Was wondering how long it would be until the next melt down.

Been a few months, but I'm jumping back on! Going to be streaming some Raft! Can I survive some sharks? Let's find out.

My new Mirawri pictures are here, and I would love to put them in the frame I got... except the mail decided to shove them in the very back of my mailbox and now they are slightly curled. -.-

So I have to press them back flat underneath an approximate five pounds of loose change I keep in an old pretzel jar.

@cobalt I feel like I should make more and put them in my shop.

Gimme

@crawfish that plate of dead mice chef kiss

AAAAAAHHHHH!

Cant wait to put them in this:

@amethystrose grabby hands

@carma thanks for the thoughts

@kanye-qwest Thanks, it's pretty shitty. On the one hand, I can't blame my roommates for not wanting to change their plans because I got dumped. But on the other.... It'd be nice if I could stay in my own home.

@testament Poop doesn't bother me, tho the job isn't really the issue. It housing that is.

@betternow Thanks, let me know. My cat is 8 years old. She's ok with other cats though not a fan. She has as ok with my puppy but didn't like the german shepherd we lived with once.

I need a place to live by the end of June. I was supposed to be moving into an apartment with my boyfriend then, but that isn't happening and I don't qualify on my own.

I'm currently in alabama and would like to live anywhere else. I have a cat, I have a car, and I work in food delivery so should be able to get a job as soon as car is registered to a new state.

I would prefer somewhere more liberal than alabama and preferably with legal weed. But literallu anywhere would have to be better.

@wretched said in Health and Wealth and GrownUp Stuff:

@Cobalt I appreciate the pictures and updates, thank you.

Here ya go. I'm officially out of dressings... I didn't take a picture last night b/x honestly it was pretty fucking gross. You know how when you pop a blister there's a little layer of loose skin? Imagine that around your entire pinky.

It itches man.

My older sister, who already has a child, has been fighting for years to get a hysterectomy because of Dysmenorrhea. She has a legitimate medical condition where her uterus makes her life living hell and now in her forties a doctor finally took it out.

It's fucking stupid.

I'm not saying that I ordered two more Mirawris and that tomorrow I'm going to go shopping to find a "live, laugh, love" frame...

But I'm not not saying it either.
