msfledermausI kept getting jolted away last night by whooping car alarms and a wrong number that kept trying to call after 11:00.
My sink's clogged again. And this morning I found a roach in my sink!!! It's winter, I don't leave food or garbage out, and my kitchen's as clean as anyone else's. What the FUCK?!?!?! After summoning my inner Sigourney Weaver and murdering it with extreme prejudice, I scrubbed my kitchen and threw out any food that might have even LOOKED open and found the number for my manager so I can get the clog taken care of and--Oh god, I don't know, lay traps? Fumigate? Send people in with machine guns!?!?! I hate roaches particularly!! When I moved in my old landlord assured me the kept a *very* clean building, with fumigators and whatnot. My guess is that the new company's been letting things slide...big shocker there.
I have tons of laundry to do when I get home.
I'm too freaked out by that bug thing to eat breakfast.
Dammit, I need that "Day reboot" button installed, dammit dammit!

If the place becomes "uninhabitable" you CAN get out of it! And you have plenty of backup on that with bugs, loud neighbors that no one does anything about, inadequate garbage pickup (guess where the roaches came from?) etc. You can document how the place has gone downhill.

I used to live in an apartment that was so clean you could have eaten off the kitchen floor. NOT a SPECK of dirt anywhere. THEN, one night, coming home from work, I flicked on the kitchen light, .....I SAW THEM!!! They scurried under the cupboards. DAM IT!!! I HATE ROACHES!!!!! Sooo... I called the landlord and he informed me that the reason I had roaches was not because I was dirty but because the people (Not that clean) who lived on the ground floor (I lived on 3rd floor) were moving out. What happened was that their moving out chased the roaches up to my place. OHHH HOW NICE!!! A PENTHOUSE VIEW!!
Anmyway, I was thinking....it is the first of the month, it's a bit cold outside (If your a roach) and just maybe you have some DIRTBALLS who are moving. COULD IT BE??? After the landlord fumagated... (Didn't take long) NO MORE BUGS....and I put the flame thrower away... GOOD LUCK!!! =O)

Date: 2003-01-03 06:07 am (UTC)If my landlord's on the ball, this shouldn't be much of a porblem. If he's not, for my birthday I'll be buying a roach control kit online and giving some to every neighbor I see as loudly as I can...
