Seattle

New obsession just dropped, her whole discography is beautiful. 💞 open.spotify.com/track/6cXEft...

We are now awaiting delivery of my deposit refund check, for which the property manager has no idea what amount it’s for. Considering it’s been FOUR. MONTHS. since I moved out, if it’s anything less than full deposit, I will still be filing in small claims court. 🧍‍♀️

She says my check can be picked up at the office. I ask why it isn’t being mailed as I was told it was. She asks for my new address (they have it, multiple times). She remembers this and says never mind they have it, yes she will send the check. I ask for the amount. She says she doesn’t know (???).

Today, I finally sit down to formerly file in small claims. The site is down for maintenance. I call my old apartment one last time, just to check. They actually answer. It’s the property manager that has been ignoring all 15+ e-mails and calls in this saga for literal months.

I sent the demand letter first week of October. I didn’t get anything back. Then last week (a! month!! later!!!) someone I don’t know leaves a voicemail saying to call them back about my deposit. I call them back 10 minutes later, I get their voicemail. I don’t hear anything back.

So I did something really silly.

🥹 it’ll be worth it in the end, happy for you. Have the most fun decorating!

omg did you get the apartment after all!! YAY!! (I know moving again will be a pain in the ass, but still!! 🙌🏻)

I really try not to be that person because I love music so much and I want artists to be successful and I want people to enjoy music. That said: when Hilary Duff announces tour dates, you have to be at least 30 years old, I’m sorry I don’t make the rules KIDS GET OUT OF THE WAY MILLENNIALS ONLY. 💃🏼💃🏼💃🏼

I made bagels for the first time ever and they actually look and taste like bagels. 🥯✨

And if I told you all of my Christmas decorations are up as of rn, what then?

Screen shot of texts: Do you have a photo of that stuffed horse you’ve had for forever on your bed? …which one? 🤣 The one by the bear or the mega big one. Uhhhh the dark brown one 😂😂 Dude they’re both brown LMAO but hang on I think you mean — I was VERY creative as a child — Chocolate

Never beating the horse girl allegations. 🐴

As someone who has lived all of this in real time I have no words besides that I’m really happy and grateful to have gay trauma bonded as teens and grew up parasocially together with these two British boyphriends.

Already a fashion ICON.

Baby’s first demand letter officially sent (/srs), kinda nervous. 👉👈 (/j)

omg they so were not there before lmao thanks, I was clicking every filter like where tf are they 🤣

Chat am I dumb — where’s the sticker pack with all the designs???

They still haven’t replied to my recent e-mail again reiterating that my keys were returned July 15. But you know what they did just send me? A BALANCE DUE NOTICE AND THREATENING TO EVICT ME. Evict me from what??? An empty apartment??? Please be so serious oh my god.

idk who needs to hear this but Paramount just released a promo where you can see Aly & AJ this Friday in Seattle for less than 35 bucks including fees, general admission floor or seats. That’s how you do affordable concerts baybee. (Code HALFOFF not a joke.) 🎫🎫🎫

idk but I’m savoring this time while I still can 😭

This is your reminder that Maisie Peters has always been that girl and now is your chance to get into her music before MP3 takes over the world. 🌱

omg I’d be mortified lmao 💀

Close up picture of a short pretzel stick pinched in my fingers. There’s a poorly drawn red outline detailing the shape of a small head, mousy ears, and leg stumps.

Why does my pretzel look like a mouse—??? 🐁

Screen cap from https://app.leg.wa.gov/rcw/default.aspx?cite=59.18.280 — (2) If the landlord fails to give the statement and any documentation required by subsection (1) of this section together with any refund due the tenant within the time limits specified in subsection (1) of this section he or she shall be liable to the tenant for the full amount of the deposit.

I’ve been doing some light research. It’s been 64 days since I returned my keys; 48 from the day my lease ended. 🤭

4. You know I left. Presumably the unit was cleaned and listed again. Someone somewhere knows the unit is empty.
5. If someone somehow doesn’t know, why are you not mad I haven’t paid rent in two months?
I hate this place so much lmfao. Embarrassing!!

Oh boy!! Still nothing!! E-mailed again!! The property manager: “Hi — did you return your keys?”
1. Yes, on July 15.
2. I also e-mailed as much on July 15, which is in the exact same e-mail string they are replying to.
3. Thank god I had the forethought to get a sticky note from the leasing agent.

I went to the office to see if they knew anything just in case before going full panic wellness check mode. Turns out he is indeed on vacation and everything is fine (well except the roaches, which is being handled). I’m yelling at Mr. Neighbor when he gets home!! Tell me if you’re gunna be gone!!

Remember this guy? I haven’t seen him in about three weeks. He put his chair away, so I figured he was likely on vacation, but a new introduction to my apartment made me worried. That’s right! Cockroaches!!
