Finally signed the lease on the new place yesterday. To say my new landlord is verbose is an understatement. This guy can't get a point across without beating it to death. Where most people would say, "I've been cleaning the place for your arrival", our good friend Alan Schroepfer says something more like:
"I've spent the last couple days really going through the house trying to make sure that the place looked great and was completely cleaned up for you. I used this wire brush here to clean the corners on the areas of the kitchen counters that were pretty stubborn - I'm going to leave that wire brush here, and you're more than welcome to use it whenever you like. I used a cleaning agent...where is it..?...oh yeah, here it is...um Soft Scrub. That's what I was using, and it really seemed to do the job. I'm going to leave this here for you as well, just in case you ever need it in the future."
I know I can be wordy sometimes, but really Alan? Really?
He's a really nice guy though, and that combined with the glorious fact that he lives on the mainland and won't be here to lay out anymore good-natured diatribes on how to turn the sprinklers so the water actually hits the plants.......I think this will work out great.
I've now made an already huge list of crap that I need to buy at Home Depot, Ross, Costco, and K-Mart. It's gonna be a long weekend of spending money on stuff I don't want to. And some that I do....I'm excited to buy bathroom linens. New towels make me horny. So do new pillows, but I don't think I can make an excuse for that one, since I already have 7 pillows on my bed. OH, but I'll have to buy pillows for the COUCH. YEAH!
