Purge.

M claimed she was moving the rest of her shit today, which I was quite excited about because it was raining like a motherfucker and there’s nothing better than moving in the rain! Who are we kidding though, she didn’t take a single thing out of that room today.

Last night was my first roommateless night! Sure, all of her crap is still here and she still has a key, but she won’t be sleeping here anymore. Living alone is INCREDIBLE, even though it has only been one night. The door will never close on the bathroom again! One bad thing is that I will have to refer to her as “my friend” rather than my “roommate.” That is so much worse than people thinking I simply live with her.

We finally talked to the landlords and gave them notice. It was so incredibly awkward. I refused to be the one to inform them, since of course it wasn’t my decision, but that meant that it was up to M to do. We sat on the couch in silence for what seemed like 15 minutes. We would stare at the dog and laugh a little when he started going randomly ballistic at us. It was painful. Finally, M let it out and that was that. It was actually the landlord’s wife though, so her husband is going to come down this evening and I’m going to try and wheel and deal with him. Pray that I stay.

Another funny little tidbit that I found out today was that M is already sick of her grandpa! She sent me a message saying that he is getting on her nerves and that it is “his way or the highway!” I asked her what she meant and she said that he FORCED her to go take out a loan to get her brakes on her car done. She said they charged her $2800 for her brakes, calipers, rotors, brake lines, e-brake and some other brake-related crap. Who the fuck would pay that much money? Is it even possible for it to cost that much? And who keeps giving this girl loans??? Ah, the questions I will ponder until my death.


Update! The landlords are letting me stay!!! My rent has gone up a couple hundred bucks and they said that I could stay for “a few months” and then he would re-evaluate their financial situation. Ok, so maybe it’s not the best news ever but the fact that I don’t have to move in 30 days makes me feel INCREDIBLE!!! I even went and packed up all of M’s food, dishes, and laundry stuff and put it in her room. It is time to purge!
