I'M SO STUPID I AMAZE MYSELF

[StarryStarry]

I wouldn't share this with anyone but you all because you get me. Let me tell you how fucking stupid I am. Okay so remember I moved across the country with my best friend, Sweet Pea. So we get here an I feel really good. Like maybe this is what will make my life better a fresh start. No. I've realized I'm the one who is so fucked up and that is never going to change. I just move around thinking it will be different but it never is - because of me! Well, anyway ... I had no furniture (left it all behind - that's another story). I went to the store and bought a twin mattress but couldn't afford the box spring so the guy tells me they have something that would work just as well and is cheaper - damn I'm on a roll - things are looking up. Don't look up too long them damn pigeons will shit anywhere. So I found this place to live (with older folks like me) and I really enjoyed (past tense) it. Everyone who lives here is so nice. Then there is the bitch who works in the office. She is nothing but a bully and takes advantage of other people here because they are older. Well, fuck her I'm not that old. So back to my saga ... so the thing I put the mattress on is metal but has plastic on the spots where it is on the floor. Let me interject here and tell you all that the floor in this place is so fucking cheap it squeals!!! Seriously! so I'm doing my thing on Saturday cleaning and I pick up the bedspread and i see a piece of the vinyl (whatever crappy flooring it is) bent back. So okay here is where I become the fucking stupidest person alive. I e-mail this bitch to let her know what happened (I was really upset and spent most of Saturday in bed crying - I love anxiety and depression). So today she cops this attitude and tells me she will hire "a company to repair the floor and I will pay the bill." No problem. I'm figuring just a couple of bucks. Then she starts saying that I will have to make payments to them in order to pay off this debt. Never mind the fact that I put down a $500 deposit!!! So I sent her a picture to show her it wasn't that bad and she says that she HAS to come into my house to look at all the damage. Must have been from that swingin' party all us old farts had. I told her that I would find someone to fix it - she said OH NO! THAT ISN"T GOING TO WORK. So, the lesson I have learned is this - don't give a shit about anything, lie your ass off and if anything happens I'm too old to remember and DENY DENY DENY.

This is just the sort of thing that happens to me. So sorry. You don't need this as well. I understand.

I've had enough myself.

That sounds really stressful what you are going through. I'm sorry that you have to endure this. It seems as though in this life things just keep on going wrong. I wish you the best.

The last part made me laugh a bit to be honest, but then also probably a good strategy, especially towards those who treated you that way first. I'm sorry you're being taken advantage of there and hope things might somehow improve or at the very least that Sweet Pea has warmed up to you again after the long drive. Best wishes.

It's never too late to learn the old and trusted mods operandi of leaving things just apparently well so the next person is the one that seems to have broken them.
