I have an smonster at my apartment!

if (as is likely) I'm overshare-y and Tom is right about the need to CYA, the revised version is excellent.
Yeah, I think my preference for the second isn't so much that I'm convinced that you really need to CYA in this kind of situation, as the fact that I tend to be the opposite of overshare-y and even kind of "why the fuck do you need to know this, anyway?" So the "I'm coming in to talk long-term plans" emphasis of the second feels like it would be comfortable to me than the "here's what I don't like about my current job" of the first.
This is, of course, not everyone's read on these things.
We don't have a smonster, but Leif is convinced there are monsters living in the storage room.
So he WANTS to go in there, right?
It could be like a seminar for him, or a master class.
They could be recruiters, "that chocolate chip cookie recipe shows some reeeeeeel promise, kid"
You'll have agents sniffing around making all sorts of promises within the week, all the best teams trying to sign him...
Well, he wants to go into the storage room to explore, but he's afraid of the monsters so he doesn't. He's terrified of monsters and clowns.
I'd take a monster over a clown, any day.
Wow, I didn't think that little fella was afraid of anything.
Oh, and my edit isn't calling him a monster but he's certainly mischeif-gifted.

Tell him that the only thing that both monsters and clowns are afraid of is pirates, so if he dresses like a pirate when he goes ito the storage room he'll be safe.

On the other hand, he would be (okay, in this case, remain) interesting.
man, I'm pricing flights for the UK and MAN the taxes/fees are crazy! To go to London in february/March, it's like $450+.
I likewise have a hair color question (Freudian slip: I originally typed "hari"): This is my hair right now. Uncolored. I'm thinking about doing an overall dark brown, but it always goes coppery. Has anyone tried Les Cacas from Lush? Or any other brand that doesn't red out?
Of course, I'm also thinking about just rolling with the new white hairs, and putting a white swath somewhere around my face.
(And please ignore the wrinkles in that photo - 18 years of tanning in New Mexico is catching up with me)
