Pink fists of fury!

That would be a bigger fucking hassle than just bitching the hell out of them. It'll eventually get done, it just requires me to be increasingly unpleasent and proactive. Like I said, btdt.

Actually it wouldn't be that hard. Just fill out this form [link] and send 2 copies to your local district court for filing with $20 for the cost. Check off certified mail for service. They'll send you a copy back for service and you just send it certified mail to the landlord and fill out the affidavit of service when the return receipt comes back in the mail. You'll get a court date in the mail. Then you just show up and tell the court your story. Keep track of what attempts you made to contact them and how long you were without A/C. If nothing else, they'll never ignore you again.

Courts are a powerful tool that many people don't use, and other people over-use.

Hey! kat perez is here! I've missed her.

Fuckety. Just got a call from Emmett's mom. He smacked his nose pretty hard against somebody's head while playing handball at school. No bleeding, but a little black eye. Kid's gotta stop leading with his face, or he's going to walk around with a permanent nose guard screwed into his skull.

Also, boss is out and I have many loose ends to clean up before I leave early at 3:00pm.

No, actually that is more of a hassle than bitching.

I mean, potentially more effective, but more hassle.

This is just costing me a bit of comfort (though thankfully the weather has been mild) and a hell of a lot of disgust and annoyance. It's incompetence+rudeness. Not worth the courts, barring health & safety issues (which it lacks.)

Poor Emmett!

It will be a happy day when that kid grows into his head.

(Please Note: Had I a certain photo of myself and my fourteen first cousins on-line it would be clear that the above statement is purely empathetic on the part of my entire gene pool. Signed, split my chin, to the point of stitches, twice before I was out of first grade)

This is going to be interesting. King Fahd is probably dying. He has been irrelevant to the government since 1995, when he suffered a stroke.

His designated heir, his half-brother Crown Prince Abdullah, has been running the country, but other members of the royal family were hoping the half-brother would die before Fahd did, thus putting the succession up for grabs. Now Abdullah is going to have complete authority.

What a complete and total PITA, sara. Ugh. I haven't had great building management, but at least I haven't needed much. The guy here was good when the water started flowing from my bathroom light fixture, I have to say.

In my imaginary life where I'd have kids, I would want my grandkids to call me Big Momma. It would go with the wigs and all.

I love this image SO MUCH.

It is a lovely day, and I totally went out in it! YAY.

Ouch. Poor Emmett's nose.

I just cleaned out three boxes worth of paperwork from around (and under and on top of) my desk and I found a little stocking stuffer that someone gave me for Christmas full of little sample sizes of Crabtree & Evelyn hand lotions and oils. Score!

Ouch. Poor Emmett's nose.

Curse you, wee Perez... now I have this weird mini-skirted Emmett/Marsha Brady amalgam in my head going (All together now!) OH MY NOSE!
