the idea that, because someone pays you to do something, whether handsomely or not, they own your life? Definitely something we all have to speak out about(yes, it's totally worse when wrinkly old white guys do it to strong, younger black guys, but it also reminds me of that forced-arbitration crap, too, so that football fan? in my view, is arguing for her own oppression by some corporate giant.)
Yeah, not a particular football fan myself, but...as you say. During all the drama about whether or not the Chargers would leave San Diego, I generally responded to questions that the Chargers were Whiny Little Bitches and I hoped they would leave so we wouldn't have to keep hearing about it. However, I still believe that those Whiny Little Bitches have First Amendment rights. And I've had it up to here with old, rich, white guys trying to determine which rights the rest of us are worthy of.
Hil, why do you have to tell your landlord anything about when you leave? Are you expecting him to do something to the apartment while you're gone?
Definitely feeling the whole stadium-pain thing, ET. But, rights are rights--I've even changed my mind about Tebowing, even though I do think he is a self-righteous twirp, but I'd let him do it, hopefully next to some guy in a Trust Women shirt.

I'm going to be gone for a few months, so I'd told him that, and asked him what I should do with the air conditioner while I'm gone (whether to leave it running at 80 or something, or just turn it off, or what -- I've had issues at other apartments with condensation with stuff like that.) And that's when he freaked out about the clutter in my apartment, and told me to tell him a week before I leave, so that he can do a walk-through.
And there are a couple of repairs that I'd like him to do while I'm gone -- one of my walls is crumbling.
I hope he's not planning on renting out your apartment over the summer for Air B&B!

I'm glad I'm not the only person who thought that. Maybe someone could stop by a few random times while you are gone, to check.
That thought had occurred to me.
I'm probably leaving next weekend. I think that, when I email him to tell him that, I'll also ask him to tell me what time he'll be here, and give me 24 hours notice, so that I don't have to just sit around waiting and worrying.
You need a much less emotionally involved landlord, Hil.
"What if the beatles stopped their songs to put *messages* in them?" And I'm like "They did. For years." Imagine thinking you were gonna own with that. Of course, I'm a fan so she also got my thoughts on Gerry and the Pacemakers. #MiniHecubus
Pfft! They back that up and turn that around! Ain't playing that shit with erika!
