Ugh, Tricia. It's too early in the morning to be patronised by her.
Leon is in SCOTLAND!!! ARRRRRGGGGGHHHHHH!!!! *Bangs his head off a brick wall* If you were going away, WHY didn't you get back to me?!? Ok, so I know he's got other stuff on, I imagine he's in Scotland for a conference where he's probably giving a paper, plus he's got his usual teaching and admin duties here at Queen's, but STILL. He's the one freaked me out with unsolicited e-mails and phone calls, pushing me to have the stuff ready for after Easter, and then when I finally deliver, he DOESN'T TELL ME ANYTHING!!!!
House hunting is still blah. It's getting me down. Stupid expensive places that aren't worth the money. I was in a place yesterday that didn't have cable. Didn't have cable!!! Every house I've rented before had cable. I paid, what, £120 a month for Meadowbank Place, and it had cable; I'm not paying £210 for no cable. (Television is important to me, ok? It probably shouldn't be, but I realised yesterday that yeah, TV is very VERY important to me.) There are just so few 2-bed properties available at the moment. And then I need somewhere to live by July 1st, and everyone is looking either for a immediate let, or a date in August and September.
And I'm still not 100% convinced about living with Leaonia.
Going this evening to look at a flat on the Botanic side of Queen's. The landlord was very scary. He was really brusque with me on the phone, and when I asked him for the address (so I could take a look at the building from the outside), he nearly leapt down my throat!!! "I'm not telling you that, because you're not going to get viewing it without me there, no way, you can't get to see it." And then he was all, "And no parties either, I'm very very strict about that," and I'm like, "Are you going to be living with me?" Yeesh. He was so rude and ... SCARY!!!
