(no subject)
Follow up to this morning's cool post.
So i didn't sleep at all last night or this morning. I got up when i needed to and went straight to the apartment complex. It was nothing but problem from the beggining. I am a you girl, i look foolish and easy to anyone. They tried and tried all different ways to make me stay and tell me they could in no way let go of the lease. The other guy had already moved in to the apartment i wanted so we couldn't switch. They completely tried to pull one over on me. And i felt so fucking dumb and so pissed and angry because i ccouldn't handle it, all i could do was cry and try to explain what was wrong. Finally, when i knew there was no way there were going to let me win i had to call my parents to come over from their work and deal with it. They had already volunteered to and were standing by their phones waiting.
It took about 30 minutes for them to get there.
For those of you who have never seen my parents or know nothing about them, i will describe them for you.
My mom is about my height and looks alot like me only as a woman. All my life i've been used to seeing her in business suits as her usual attire. She was going to be a lawer and has worked with paralegal stuff and reference stuff since high school.
My step dad is a large white male in his mid to late 50's. Very businessy, very intimidating. I was telling evita, durning christmas time all he does is walk into the store and the workers go nuts catering to him. Like Richard Gere in Pretty Woman, only replace Gere with Steve Martin because thats who he most resembles.
He walked into the apartment leasing office and my mom and i were behind him. The minute he walked in they were scattering. He sat down and like the jerk he can be said "don't smile at me lady. I want the lease" they imidiately took the lease and all the papers and started shredding them right there. They also offered to mail back all the money i had put down, without them even having to ask. Everthing was taken care of right there.
I was still upset but my parents are very supportive. They had been on the phone with lawyers all night and day since i had told them what happened. And they just kept telling me that it wasn't my fault and that everything was okay, even though i felt like shit for not being able to handle it. But i am glad i told them about it when i found out and that i didn't hide it from them because i was so unhappy it would have been very hard to hide. I would have been stuck untill july. I couldn't do that.
So all in all i guess it worked out for the best. I don't want to lease with any lying shifty dealers, and it's probably best i just wait for a while. as much as i want to live alone, everything is pretty good right now, so i think it will be okay.
