LUPO!! (probably NSFW somewhere in here)

*nods*

Perspective is everything.

If it's an electric stove, I worry about an electrical problem.

Not necessarily an emergency, but it could become one quickly.

Then again, I'm still bugging my landlord (THREE YEARS LATER) about a broken outlet in my kitchen. He doesn't seem to think it's an emergency.

I worried about the electrical issue (no gas appliances) but the maintenance guy was out, said the reason the burners weren't working was because the soldering broke loose. And apparently someone who my landlord said was me (was not) told her that my dishwasher fixed itself.

I just can't bring myself to be mad about this shit. I have a roof, I have food, I have a warm bed and heat. I still remember how cold it got sleeping outside this time of year.

To me, burners not working means a problem with the gas line.

See, I'd call that sarcasm.

I'd USE that sarcasm.

Tone is lost in translation, I guess. I don't consider it an emergency. Being homeless for five years really puts the word "emergency" in perspective.

I have used that sarcasm.

It went over my (Albanian) landlord's head.

Stupid language barrier.

You? MORE assertive? That's a frightening thought and my blood stream is lacking enough caffeine to process it.

My landlord came over while she was here to check out my stove since 3/4 burners don't work. She was complaining that shes absolutely swamped with a bunch of URGENT requests and I had the nerve to say "Hey, its not an emergency, I still have one working but I would like the rest soon "

ETA: Why didn't anyone tell me that *yesterday* was Thursday? I was supposed to pick up my check yesterday O.o I knew the date seemed funny...

My therapist said I need to be more assertive about things.


I'm gonna let y'all soak that in and toss it around.

You should stand in the lobby and read it in dramatic fashion ala James Lipton

LOL That would be funny to do in the middle of the gas station, but considering that for the next five days, the closest gas station to me is the other one he owns, and then that one, I think I'd rather not be banned from my coffee LOL

[Whiskey]

I might! Or he might throw my check at me like the girl he fired shortly before I quit. We'll see. I don't even know if he read the whole letter

I've been distracted by email-poking and girl-flirting. Sometimes at the same time!

There are boobs in my future.

[SengaKitty]

I need this on a shirt asap

Seconded.

Wow the past two days have been unusually slow for this thread.

I get to go pick my last check up today! Wonder if I'll see *Jethro

[Whiskey]

This is me today:



Oh wait, that's me EVERY DAY.
