Dun dun duunnnnnn!!

So last night all shit hit the fan. My crazy neighbour who lives across the hall from me finally got kicked out last night and was sent packing with her cat in tow. The poor kitty sounded so sad, I was more concerned for him than that drunk bitch. Both the women in the apartment drink, but one was a stupid drunk and the other was a violent drunk. The stupid drunk was actually okay when she was sober. I’ve never seen the other woman sober, PERIOD. She was always hanging around in the halls propped up against a wall or being dragged home by her scumbag boyfriend. 

So anyway, last night the two of them came home steaming drunk as usual and one of them hit the other. Then a fist fight ensured with the violent drunk getting kicked out because she wasn’t on the lease. The cops came over to talk to the other woman who had calmed down a little by now, but I could see through my peephole that she was bleeding so the EMT’s were there too. 

Then I went over to Jeff’s and we got talking about the two of them and I discovered that the apartment manager was kicking out her boyfriend and he was a little disorientated because he didn’t know what to do next. He said that he still loved her and that they had their daughter together so he didn’t want to move back home to Texas because that would mean that he would never see her again. I honestly don’t know how he put up with the apartment manager for so long. Sure he’s knocked her around a couple of times, but I know that’s only because she’s thrown stuff at him and started fights. She’s a pretty aggresive person and he’s very placid…they’re not a good match at all. 

Drama, drama, drama. I’ll keep you posted on what happens next

Busy Bee Me

I’ve been so busy the last couple of days. I’ve had the energy and mental capabilities to clean the apartment, and when I get into that phase of the month, I REALLY clean. Over the last two days I have:

• Washed the shower curtain and liner
• Scrubbed the bathroom floor
• Washed the bathmat
• Scooped and scrubbed out the litter box
• Scrubbed the bath
• Scrubbed the toilet
• Scrubbed the bathroom sink
• Finished all the dishes
• Scrubbed all counters
• Scrubbed the stove top
• Scrubbed the kitchen floor
• Scrubbed the kitchen bin
• Vacuumed the whole apartment
• Febrezed every fabric surface in sight
• Washed the blankets in the living room
• Dusted
• Cleaned every glass surface with Windex (including all windows)
• Defraged, virus scanned, spyware scanned, registry cleaned and dejunked the computer
• Cleaned the keyboard, mouse, Xbox, game controllers and remotes with compressed air
• Oh and done about five loads of laundry

And now I am so beat. Wringing out rugs and mats in the bathtub requires a lot more muscle power than you think

Apartment Update

So as you all know, the apartment is now ours. Only we’re not getting the same apartment that we originally applied for. The owner of the apartment building is moving us to a better apartment that has a better view and we’re also right next door to her (which is nice because her daughter is pretty much the same age as Abby). It’s a little bit more a month ($640 a month instead of $615) but we can still afford it. We’re going to pay the security deposit in the next week so then it will be officially ours! 

I’ve started packing up stuff in boxes that we’re not using at the moment (stuff like winter clothing and winter bedding). There’s a lot of stuff in the basement that we need to figure out what we’re going to do with…I’m guessing that we’re going to be storing some of it in Nick’s mom’s basement. But you know, the stuff is down there because we don’t use it anymore. I cannot wait to get to our new place…and get to watch cable! OMG, I’ve never had cable before and it will be so nice to have something decent on tv to watch! :p

We Have It!

We got the apartment! I didn’t think we were going to get it, but the other people that wanted it I guess dropped out or didn’t pass the background checks. It’s awesome…I feel like the luckiest person on the planet!

I’m currently waiting for the UPS truck to get here. I’ve been waiting all damn day and it’s almost 5pm. Where are you?
