Full house

Yep - full full. My sister is waaay too accommodating... I already have so much to repay her for.

My *now former* landlady is a nut. A little, squibbly nut. Now, it's one thing to be coming into the apartment twice a month to "clean", but after seeing the horrid job the "cleaning man" did and requesting that that service end (I could clean, right, K? *if you dare say anything otherwise... your white ras is mine once you hit B'dos!), she comes with "Fine... but I would still need to come in at least every other week to check on the place".

Er... no eh.

I thought nothing much of it... I'm barely ever home, so it did no harm. Kinda. Well... a bit... it is erkie thinking of someone just in your space. Woof.

Then Miss (land) Lady decide to come to do repairs - retiling the place. Err... yep, but in the kitchen. No real big.

Until...

One day, tired as ras with the mindset to hit the gym for the 5pm class, I see Miss LL come with a workerman to START doing work... at that hour (4:30pm).

"Ms. Knights... allyuh now comin' to do work?"

"Yes"

Blood boiling up a storm... I couldn't think. I just took my bag back up, and headed to my sister's place... After my mind settled, I realised how uncool that was, and decided that I would move as soon as the contract is up (in 1 month)...

Until...

After having a few margaritas with my coworkers (and boucing up Parrot's sis... yep, another German-Trini back on d' Island!), I headed home for a nice nap... but, err... both locks on my door locked.... I only lock one of them. Hmm... But before realising that and real tryin' to open the one (usual) lock - door seemingly stuck... ring ring Ms. LL:

"Ms. Knights... I can't get into the apartment"

"Of course you can... you have all the keys"

"Err... both locks are locked... wait... you were here today?"

"Yes... "

"Ms. Knights! WHY?! I had no idea you'd be here"

"Sue-Ann, a few weeks ago I told you we'd be doing repairs"

"You said for that DAY! So I prepared for that day..."

She's irritated now, apparently "Sue-Ann! Is that why you left your handbag on the couch"

"Ms. Knights... honestly... I left my bag there because I was rushing to work **As if I really would do that to spite her... and ...er... why?** ... now I don't even know if my bedroom door is locked.... this is silly Ms. Knights... you coming in at odd hours, without letting me know, like that time you woke me up calling my name at 5:54am to collect rent... just opened the door and come by my bedroom door... "

"What?! I never did that... "

"Umm.. you did... my alarm that's set for 6:00am didn't even go off yet and I had to scamper for clothes because you were already propped on the couch and calling my name outside my bedroom door... not even a call to let me know you would like to come... nada"

Silence on the other end

"We aren't doing each other favours Ms. Knights... I pay for your service... "

*Did she hang up?*

"Look... the moment I get this door opened is the moment I move out"

*Oh, she just hung up*

And I did.

Now, I live with my sister and her two kids, in the same "building" with my cousin and his wife, my bro and his girlfriend and son, and my cousin with her son... oh yeah, completely full house.

And I love it - crowds are friends to someone with 6 siblings.





*Zue!!! It's Montag! Get back to work!*
