Post about graduation and the con coming soon... and little angry outburst first though!
When Serenity came out on DVD I bought one of those great huge cardboard advertising standee things - one with Nanny McPhee on the other side (which was cool because my uncle was a cameraman on that movie), and it was taller than me, etc etc...
I left it in my room at Uni after we cleared it all out, because it wouldn't fit in the car. And the room was LOCKED. And I didn't leave my keys, and I didn't tell him I'd moved out. And my contract doesn't end until August 31st. And when I got there on Friday to get changed before graduation, it was GONE. And the window was open and the door was propped open with the armchair. And I was like. WHAT? I was SO FUCKING ANGRY.
So I phoned him Friday night and he didn't answer, so then I sent him a text, and I spoke to him on Saturday and he claims the door was open when he got there (which it SO FUCKING WASN'T) and he thought it was "just cardboard" so he took it out through Steph's room and THREW IT OUT THE WINDOW and then had his son clear the back yard of all the "rubbish". He also thought he'd thrown out my big floor cushion which was still there too but he didn't. We took that away with us.
Bastard.
He says he'll pay if I buy another one but why should I *have* to? I can see one on ebay now but it's the only one listed and it's not the same one. I'm just so annoyed because it doesn't look like I'll be able to get one now, because it isn't TOPICAL anymore.
He's SO lucky I never got it signed.
bastard landlord,
