day a: i find a cool place for $400/mo, cable modem ready, only 20 minutes by bus from downtown seattle.
day b: her mom’s real estate agent friend “Fanny” takes me to see it.
her mom comes along.
day c: her mom decides to buy the entire building.
a present for her step-son, my gal’s step-brother whom i think is about as neato as a chapped anus.
my new townhouse-mate? of course.
day d: i think: if i move out, her asian family takes offense and thinks i am trying to separate them from their daughter (plus i lose a SWEET place that i can actually AFFORD.)
if i don’t move out, her mom or step-brother becomes my landlord and can enter my space at their own discretion, most likely disapproving of my decorative tastes. if her step bro doesn’t like my music, her mom learns i’m a metal head and i am gone. her step bro doesn’t like my friends? her mom holds it against my character and i am gone. her step bro doesn’t like my decorated monkey skull (etc)? her mom calls the chinese mafia to off me or otherwise ship me as far away from her daughter as possible.
day e: i realize that i am in hell.
day f: i think about how i got to hell…
day g: maybe not hell… found a boxing club, cheap rent, cheap rent, cable modem, cheap rent… hell?
day h: definitely in hell. at least the food is good in hell…
