My landlady just called to say the hallway in my room is too cluttered and could I pack it up and clean it up some (this went on for a while, and involved the phrases "if you could be a little more cooperative" and "just help out a little more" which I am choosing to believe she used without meaning the extra-condescending connotations). Know what's in the hallway in my room? A bookcase and my chest of drawers, because there's nowhere else in the room to put them. I'd call back and ask her where the fuck she thinks they should go, but it would just make me grind my teeth down some more.
We knocked 'em deader!

Well, Emily, what's nice is that you're moving soon! Yay! So you won't have to worry about pleasing your landlady anymore anyway.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
What Consuela said, though I still want to crank call your landlady or something like that.
Consuela, YAY, and no need to bring anything.

Word. I just went and packed up some more books (three milk crates full to go to the used bookstore) and moved my dresser over in front of the window. Which means it's blocking off a lot of light, but those are really the options in that room -- you can either have a lot of light, or you can have somewhere to put your stuff, but not both. In fact, I think this way is probably worse, but I'll be damned if I didn't do what she asked, right?
Of course, what with getting stuff out of the way so I could move the dresser, the room's a total mess again. I hope they don't want to bring anyone over too early tomorrow.

... and a mortgage. What was it? Forty years? 50?
Gawd, how I hate banks, what with the way they enslave us.

She's been having a mortgage, I don't know the terms, or what changes the new place will make to them.
