Allyson's stomach, shut up!

So, did everyone remember to wear pink today? I totally did. Pink blouse with a bow at the neck and everything.

Hey, people with breasts--do you ever use the patch pockets over them on your shirts/blouses? What's up with that?

Ugh. I'm having email avoidance. Got to get over it.

I do use those pockets. It never works out well, but I am often desperate for pockets.

I don't even buy things with those pockets. I hates them.

I never use those pockets. Actually, I'm not sure I own anything with those pockets, but I don't think I'd use them if I did.

Hey, good news! Our old landlord finally texted me just now to say he's mailed us our security deposit, after numerous phone calls/texts from M and me "reminding" him that he owed us the money. For those of you keeping track at home, we moved out over two months ago. Hopefully we never have to deal with this jackass again.

I bought a thing with that pocket because it's pretty, but I look at the pocket with confusion. There's no way it can practically be used in any aesthetically compliant fashion.

It puzzles, nay perplexes, me.

Oh, right, I have a foreign drug order to place. Forgot.

Most places there's a time limit for landlords--if they don't give it back (or tell you why they aren't, like you destroyed the place) within X days, you can (a) get it all back even if they would've otherwise kept some and (b) take them to (small claims?) court. I know several friends where the "I will take you to court and win if you don't get it back to me in the next three days" has been very successful.

In Wisconsin, they even have to pay you interest on the deposit. Surprised the heck out of me the first time I got a deposit back like that!

Nilly! So good to see your font and hear about the cutie-pie sprog. No offense, ever.

Yeah, we were starting to consider going that route. I'm glad that we don't have to now, though it would have been nice to have a way to get the whole amount back. (The lease says that he automatically keeps 50% of our deposit as a "nonrefundable pet deposit.")

Gee, that would be nice! But at this point I'm prepared to just cut our losses and take whatever he gives us, unless it's something like half of what it should be. I'm so sick of dealing with him and don't have the time or energy to sue anybody.

Anyone know where my vacuum cleaner attachment is? It's foiling my brief impulse to clean.
