So most of you know this story and I am sorry if I bore you with inane details, but I need to vent and find a reason for my sanity.
Since day one in this house, it has been nothing but trouble. Where do I start (the list is so fucking long). First day we go to move in we find out that day we have no water heater, AC or furnace. Ac doesn't get fixed for about a week, furnace got put in about 2 weeks after our move. Water heater doesn't get installed until the 28th of May (28 days after we had moved in).
Then there are a bunch of minor problems that I could stand to live with, either that or I just can't remember what all the problems there are since there ARE so many. Our house gets broken into and I lose all my Florida money and a few of my other things... by the way, if you ever see me wearing only one earring that looks like it should be a pair, yeah go right ahead and blame the idiot who only stole one of each earring. Dammit.
Somewhere along the way our electrical starts fucking up. Half the fucking outlets in the house don't work and if we want them to work we have to sacrifice the AC, yeah so fuck that. We repeatedly tell our landlord for well over 2 months that there are problems dealing with electrical but nothing is ever done.
Then we (we being Kelly and I) get into a fight with Dawn (things seem to be better now thank God). COme to find out, there are three bounced checks that were made to Brian and we never knew about them. Kelly and I went into Brian's club simply to find out about a late fee and were bombarded with threats of eviction and information we never knew existed. In that night I found out that Brian is a liar and I can't trust him. This was July 12th by the way.
The very next day, we get a notice from the water company saying our water is going to be shut off in 48 hours. We called the water company to find out why, since we had never received a bill. Come to find out, Brian hadn't paid his bill since January and had a little over a thousand dollars built up from non payment. When confronted about it, he simply said, "it was left over from a previous tenant and I will take care of it." Funny thing is, no one has lived in this house since about 14 months prior to us. Yeah left over from a previous tenant my ass. And if he took care of it, why are we still without water 8 days later? This shit is starting to get on my last damn nerve.
Then, I got so pissed off I called a lawyer (only after having called the renters association to file a claim against him). My lawyer tells me to write him a letter telling him he has 24 hours to get our water turned back on and one week to get our electrical fixed. So this is what I did. I wrote him the letter and then made a list of everything needed to be fixed, threatened a lawsuit and sent him my rent. All of a sudden he starts making calls. I think I scared the shit out of him. Oh look, AMie isn't as stupid as I thought she was.
Well anyway, we still have no water. The electrician came by yesterday and "fixed" the electrical. We told him that if all he did was flip breakers then he needed to rethink his plan. We knew in about 2 hours our AC would shut off and we would be right back where we started from. SO as I predicted and warned him about our AC shut off. Then we started having power surges and then today our power shuts off from being over loaded. Great. I had to bag up all the groceries I just bought yeterday and haul them out to my parent's house so they wouldn't go bad.
I'm pissed. I mailed off my 30 days notice last night to Brian as well as kelly too. I am packing up all my shit this weekend and I am moving the fuck out. Ugh, fuck all this shit. It hasn't been worth it since day fucking one.
Sorry about the long ass post. Hope I didn't hurt your eyes. Also ladies, sorry I couldn't make it out tonight. I am so pissed off I can't see straight plus I have a massive headache from having to deal ewith all this.
