Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

bonny, would it be out of place to ask whether moving to a new place with a sane landlord is an option?

Compassionately intolerant

Wuh-huh?

Right. Logic-free zone.

Actually, people stopped coming to the store because his poor dog (who he doesn't bring anymore) is so out of control fearful and untrained that she threatened all but a couple of people. And I had the bruises to attest to the fact that being her 'friend' was not the better end of the deal.

His 'arguments' were meant to be threatening because he 'rented the apartment as an apartment' not an office which means that I've somehow changed the rules enough that he should get away with everything and I should never complain about anything.

Too bad I have multiple letters proving his agreement with the office space for the last 7+ years.

Silly, ice cream is a cure-all, not an end-it-all.

bonny, would it be out of place to ask whether moving to a new place with a sane landlord is an option?

A totally logical question. Tragically, I LOVE my apartment. I love the building. I just wish he loved it as much. I'm not in a financial situation good enough to pick up and move, either. Thus, the stuckness and outrage. What I ask is not too much...but it sure seems to much to expect.

Feh.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

mmmm ... ice cream ... there's a farmers' market I hit most weeks that has artisanal (artisinal?) ice cream and gelato. Interesting flavors ... but it takes me so long to get home, it'd melt on the way. But still ... mojito gelato?

And thanks for the advice everyone - I'll work on the best way to phrase things and talk to my friend.

Punishingly Intricate

But still ... mojito gelato?

oh yeah! The gelato place in my work hood has that. In fact, they may be related to the ones at your farmer's market.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I'm not sure I've ever had mojito gelato*, but I'm wholly in favor of mojito popsicles.

* but boy, is it ever fun to say.

A gelato place opened in my home town called "The Gelato Fiasco", which is also fun to say.

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated

The Ferry Building in San Francisco (thank you, Hec, my favorite foodie) has an amazing gelato place. I had Jack Daniels gelato, IIRC.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

There are some kick-ass gelato places in my nabe - one of which does do mojito gelato. It is Teh Yum.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

Bonny's apartment is so nicely located and fits her to a "t". Too bad it comes with extra crazy.

Visiting that gelato place at the Ferry Building is such a delight. nom nom nom.

I got my tragus pierced yesterday and it is still throbbing today. Drowning in ice cream seems like a good idea.
