[DeservingBitch]

I guess she's also um...deserving of that bitch title?

Totally!

 

[sexycaz22]

So, who is this "Self" person? Everybody seems to know him/her. Quite the popular sort, although with a life share of burdens, for sure

didn't you know, everyone have two different personitities on their shoulder....the one gulity/devil and the other one innocent/angelic?

((by the way in case you were wondering, the self one is the innocent one trying to stop me meeting dates, and the other self is the devil one who finally gets it done, but is not feeling too guilty!))

Should i be worried if my devil keeps poking my angel in the butt with her pitchfork till she runs away?

Dear X,

You didn't even rewrite the ad. You are so callous!

I feel badly for her. You really destroyed her sense of self esteem. Don't you feel guilty? And she has a three year old who apparently still asks for you. Both of you were foolish to get so deeply involved so quickly when there are children in the situation. Do you ever think about anyone besides yourself?

Oh well, it's not my business. I know that.

p.s. therapy works!

Dear Self -

Stop being such a chicken and post your damn picture. What's the worst that can happen? Oh. Well, that won't happen, so just do it already. About time you got over yourself.

People are nice sometimes, you know?

Sincerely,

Me

Dearest X:


I will not run.

I will not.

I won't.

Part of that is me telling you that, and part of it is me telling me that.

 

[Untamed_Tygress]

Dear X,

Thank you for realising you acted like a major a**hole this weekend & apologising for it. It was very nice of you to offer to take us out tomorrow night to make up for it, & i hope everything will eventually go back to how it once was.

If you were feeling sad cuz drinking that expensive bottle of booze put you in a bad place where all you could think about was how your ex gf was getting married & you want no involvement with females for awhile you should've just said so instead of lashing out at me. I would've been happy to leave you alone & sleep in my own bed.

How can you still have feelings for her anyway if she chose to break the news to you by sending a naughty picture of herself with her camera phone along with a message saying how hot she is & that other girls are nothing but fat slobs & you can look at her all you want to but you cant touch? Uggghhh!

You're the nicest person i know, & you could do so much better than that self-centered bitch!

Me



Dear Self,

Next time you feel like betting someone they wont toss you into the snow make sure you're dressed for it! Brrrr! It WAS funny when you took him down with you though! lol

Dear X,

I know you don’t understand and yet you do not judge I am thankful for that. I am not sure why but I need it and I need it badly.

Dear XX,

You better not.

Dear XXX,
I still do not understand why this is happening, or if this is the time. I need more time but I am also very tired.

[Mrs. Sanj]

This I can do.

Dear X,

I have repeatedly tried to help you and you don't care. It means nothing to you, yet I waste my time and energy in still attempting. This is your life and when it falls apart more and possibly has the chance of making you realize your mistakes then maybe you will see.

Dear Lover,

My heart and soul belong to you now as they have always and will forever. I understand that much and anything else is trivial.

Dear X,

It lingers in my mind all day, every day. I can't let it consume me or I won't be able to stand up and do the things I need to do.

~Me

 

[Untamed_Tygress]

Dear Mischief,

Most of all thank you for choosing me to be your human! You were the cutest and dirtiest ball of fluff i ever saw when you followed me home that day. And i was pleasantly surprised to find that there was a beautiful tabby hiding underneath all that gray grime!

Thank you for always giving me a warm welcome when i walk through the door, & for curling up next to me when i sleep & when i'm not feeling well.

You're the best kitty i've ever had, and you always will be (despite your habits of tapping me on the head to say "get up, it's feeding time!" & the occassional love nips at my ankles after you've been playing too hard.)

Love,
Your owner

Dear Stupid Landlord Lady,

Thank you so much for not putting up the wheather strip like you said you would before I moved into my apartment so I can sit in the living room and freeze my ass off as the cold wind comes ripping through the crack. Thanks again, FUCKER!

Me

THAT would drive me nuts.
Towel, or blanket would be rolled up and wedged tight against that draft if it were sneaking under our door....

My apartment is next door to Kitty's and is the exact same way. The problem is, the wind comes through the side of the doorframe rather than under the door. (Read: the doors don't actually fit the frames.) I could tell you some stories about that crazy, cheap old bat.

 

[Yang4yin]

Dear X.

Bite the bullet and install some weatherstripping yourself. It's not that difficult to do and not all that expensive. Sure, the landlady promised to do it, but it looks like she isn't going to live up to her agreement. Besides, it sure beats freezing, possibly getting sick, and then having to buy medicine.

Dear Yang,

We've tried. We don't know how, LOL. The doors are metal (which means stuff won't stick to them for nothin', and we don't have tools to drill holes), and we're too dumb to figure out how to install it. And we don't have the money to pay someone else to do it.

[Yang4yin]

Dear X,

Have you tried to clean and dry the surfaces before trying to stick something to them?

Did you look at the link I posted above?

Is there a Lowe's, Home Depot or Ace Hardware near you that you can go to for helpful advice? Do you have any handy friends who would help?

Tried to clean and dry them. Didn't work. Maybe it wasn't the right kind of adhesive, though. I'm looking at your link now. (Thanks!) Kitty and I will try to figure it out on our own (maybe). Maybe someone at one of those hardware places can offer advice if we can't figure it out.

 

[Yang4yin]

Dear X,

When I lived in the boonies of South Carolina, I made a very good friend at the nearby Ace Hardware. He helped this city boy with all kinds of problems that don't occur in the big city! I'd be willing to bet that your sweet smile would get you all kinds of free advice, and maybe some free assistance with the installation.

Dear Bunny and Kitty,

I've been a landlord. Usually the expectation is to profit but at the same time, to provide upkeep....... IF you are at least a halfway decent property owner who cares about the property, at LEAST.

And, I've had the worse of the bunch AS landlords. My first apartments were in the worse neighborshoods too. I certainly lived in a few that would be described as slums (not to downplay your draft stuff and that crazy old bat .. but, worse are when you rent from a cowardly-slumlord who never shows his ass and instead has an army of incompetent 'property managers' to hide behind. Been there done that too (no Tshirt).

If the old bat is too cheap to fix a drafty door frame... other than being faced with a withholding of rent (which is more complicated than it seems .. laws and expectations for doing that properly vary .. look into your local housing laws or landlord/tenant rights), she's not likely to change.

I understand too that you have a careful balance to keep. The squeeky wheel may get oiled in some cases, yet you have to be careful not to complain too much if you plan on having to or wanting to live there much longer. Best to stay neutral. Better not to piss the old bat off, much. BUT, if she is in violation of local requirements set by the board of health and/or in violating any of your rights as tenants, nad it is bought to the attention of the right people (usually the board of health or local housing aka landloard/tenant authority) often a complaint followed by an official finding (meaning they inspect and write her ass up on a violation and hand her notice to comply by such and such a date) ... puts the tenant 'under protection' during which time (usually 6-12 months depending, here in this city... to give you an idea) ... the landlord can not ask them to vacate or suggest that they do in any way shape or form.

I learned this the hard way after a dumbass landlordback in July 1993, sandblasted, without notice, lead paint off of the wood shingles on the outside of the house I was renting... while all of my windows were open, and I was not at home. My oldest was 3 months old. It was uninhabitable. Lead paint plus an infant .... I had to live there. I had no extra $ for hotel, dropped baby at mom's and cleaned for days. I made the SOB pay BIG in the long run. Reported his as the very next day for that and every other violation I could find. Then that winter, the pisspoor heat system made him pay even more. He had to put more heaters in (baseboard) in 4 of 5 rooms..... and my protection period extended/renewed another 12 months... total 24 months he couldn't ask me to leave and couldn't raise my rent.

By the time I was done with him, it was a pretty nice place compared to before with all the repairs and upgrades and improvements he had to comply with.

If she fails to fix it, self repair can be fun. Ever played with that insulating foam that expands to fill every nook and cranny? Beats nails and foam strips and the stuff is bound to be just SO much more entertaining (read instructions, of course.. aside from offering the general 'do not inhalke do not insert in mucus membranes..... I have NO idea, no advice there.. it LOOKS fun to me though).

Make me wonder, by the way..... is the heat included for either of your apartments? If it is and the cost went up she might be pursuaded to winterize.

And if no one else is home anyway.. and you have no pets, amazing how cold an apartment (especially one with heat included in the rent payment) can get if you go out for the day and accidentally leave a window cracked open. Makes the furnace work harder too.

 

[BiBunny]

Thanks, Yang and Sinn.

Sinn, I've toyed with the idea of reporting her to the appropriate authorities. When I say she's nuts, I mean, SHE IS NUTS. It's too bad our heating bill isn't included in our rent, or I'd definitely do what you said.

 

[h_i_s]

Yang is onto something there. Being a guy shopping in a place where guys normally frequent... he 'might' not realize just HOW well a couple of single ladies can do while on a visit to HomeDepot especially one during which, they are obviously helpless, clueless (not saying you ARE... suggesting that you could both ACT the part) and in need.......

They employ some pretty cute looking young guys at the HomeDepot nearest us here in Massachusetts. I've never had one single instance in shopping that store alone during which one of them hadn't approached to be sure I had everything I needed. They are very very helpful. They have classes there that you can sign up for too.

But, if you want to make it very easy on yourself, just play as helpless as possible and flirt like hell. Worse that can happen is you get a date with a fairly cute guy, then drag him home under the pretense of cooking him a meal and watching a movie... then BAM ! Next thing you know he is fixing stuff if you play it right.

I never used men. Looking back on the dates I had, I should have. I didn't get anything else out of most of them anyway. It was never my thing, I guess. could see it working for either of you, though.

Maybe you could put an ad on Craigslist?

Methinks you may be onto something there....

Dear Bunny and Kitty,
Feel free to catch the next flight and come stay with me. My house is really warm.

[h_i_s]

Methinks you may be onto something there....

Speaking from experience.

Just one example:

We put ads on there some time in the past year, seeking 'consensual slaves' for a local BDSM function (which was eventually cancelled for unrelated reasons) during which a live consensual slave auction (meaning the winning bid got to hang out with them all night and do whatever was in that consensual slave's limits ... no sex even) would take place... we got plenty of replies from both males and females. It was a discrete affair and meant having to serve for only one night. To many, it was an answer to their prayers it seemed. So many out there who would love to serve and have no outlet... so. Some were so excited and so enthusiastic about being able to serve the function (to clean before hand and afterwards, to serve drinks and stuff... to give massages and pedicures.....etc) & to be auctioned off.

I still say we could have charged *them* for THEIR services and they'd have been no less happy, no less excited to do so.
