Moving Out

Things are really getting bad around here. We got new managers the other week and they're horrible. I think it's one of those low income mangement firms because they're not doing a thing to take care of this place and they're being really lenient with the rent.

Our mailboxes are all crammed into a little room that has no doors and is open to the street. So with all these FEMA checks coming in, they're all being broken into. It's so bad that when the mailman went to open one of the banks, it broke loose and fell on top of him. So now we have to go to the post office to get our mail.

I'm pretty pissed about this whole thing. But instead of letting it get to me, I'm going to use it as motivation to move out.

Last weekend one of my friends asked me to walk her to her sisters house down the street (cause it was late at night) and there were some pretty nice and quiet places just right up the road. So I think that's where I'm going to start looking.

My boss gave me my W-2's yesterday so I'm going to use that to break my lease and move out. Hopefully I'll have enough left over to fix my headlights so my car can pass it's inspection.

Thanks Dabich I hope so too.

Yes, they still do inspections. Safety inspections. Last year they failed me at Jiffy Lube because my back license plate light was out (which it wasn't, they just didn't turn the key far enough) and my windshield wipers were too old.

damn, they stopped doing those tests in the early Nineties in Michigan. Reason #417 for you to bring that luscious ass back home.

Are you guys telling me there are NO VEHICLE INSPECTIONS IN MICHIGAN??

There are NO inspections in Michigan. It's just drive your car no matter how unsafe or polluting it is. I can't tell you how many times I've driven home behind a car with no working brake lights during rush hour.

I can tell you how many times it's happened to be recently, i.e. the last month:

FIVE!!!
