5 - I'm sick of listening to![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
wildernessguru whine about how we don't have enough space.
4 - We don't have enough space, as evidenced by WG's outdoor gear all over the place.
3 - I'm sick of listening towildernessguru whine about the noise in the park.
2 - They raised the rent to a level that's just not worth it to me.
1 - Tonight, my downstairs neighbor pounded on my door complaining about water coming through her ceiling.
Yes, I had the lovely experience of meeting my neighbor in my underwear, then, minutes later, the joy of having my landlady arrive with the plumber. He suggested not too subtly that I must be lying when I said that, no, we did not spill water on the floor, and that in fact,wildernessguru only just took a bath. My landlady and the plumber ignored me as they examined the bathroom.
"Aha! Wet footprints on the floor," said the plumber.
"That's because [WG] just got out of the bath," said Icarus.
The landlady kneeled, checking the seal at the edge of the tub and the floor. "The water could have gotten through here," she said.
"There was no water on the floor," said Icarus. "[WG] just got out of the bath. Maybe there's a plumbing problem. We did have the entire wall torn out a few months ago."
The landlady looked at the low spot on the floor by the sink. "The water would have gathered over there," she said, then cringed at the plumber. I'm standing right there being ignored, by the way. "They are old pipes...."
The plumber nodded. "It is strange that the water is cold though."
What am I, invisible here?
"That's because [WG] rinses off with a cold shower. Which is strange if you consider cold showers strange. Which I do," said Icarus.
Note thatwildernessguru was standing in the kitchen in a towel, dripping, throughout all of this. Also note that the apartment was a mess and I was very unhappy having anyone in there. I've no time or interest in cleaning my apartment despite the fact that, yes, they will be here tomorrow to fix their plumbing problem.
I am officially pissed off.wildernessguru has been simmering all evening.
I've had it with this place.
