Not legal, withhold rent, Alibelle. If you can't do that sue them in small claims court for the rent during the period you could not live in the apartment and your hotel expenses. That would take a while to recover so the option is not ideal but you are entitled to recover when they breach like this.
I am not...I am not the damsel in distress. I am not some case. I have to work this. I've lived in a cave for 5 years in a world where they killed my kind like cattle. I am not going to be cut down by some monster flu. I am better than that. What a wonder...how very scared I am.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I am amazed by all this radical renter activism. In my town, the city council is made purely of landlords, and only the vaguest of state laws apply. It was a big deal when you had to give 30-days notice of eviction.

omg, my crazy downstairs neighbor is crazy! A minute after I let my cat in, I heard footsteps coming up the stairs (which I at first thought was from the apartments at the back, the soundproofing isn't all that great). The footsteps turned into sprinting up and down the first five or so steps, which lasted for another full minute. I couldn't actually see her through the peephole, but with that level of crazy, I wasn't really willing to open the door and meet it.
Maybe she was working out?

Because books.
In less than 14 hours, I will commence driving to the airport to leave for Las Vegas.
And I will be ... in Cleveland? Or something. On my way to Vegas, at any rate!

I'm feeling whelmed by the coming few months. No idea how I'm going to do this (just did some preplanning queries for catcare and it's all just sort of in my face. I have a lot to do. And $$ to spend.)
