Further Whinge!

WAIFS!
Headed out to check out the farmers market, not too inspired, but it was a fun short bike ride. Brought the roommate alone, and she asked permission to have an anxiety attack. Ok, whatever; turns out she's anxious about living off me. What?

"There's been a communication breach." Her memory is that I will serve as a "bank", and give her the rent back when she leaves. My memory is that she asked me to loan her a down payment for a place in San Francisco, and rather than give her money, I told her I'd loan her back the rent money after a couple or three months, and she could use that.

That's not what she remembers. Why, oh why, don't I put these things in writing? And I was whinging about the trouble it would be to raise her rent...ha@! Foolish mortal!

She hasn't been getting work, so odds are won't have the rent for next month, and that's why anxiety attack.

My oh my.

So wouldn't the bank concept pretty much negate the whole idea behind 'rent'?

As for rent next month, being behind a week or so happens to all of us. But if she's not going to have it at all, then perhaps she should move out sooner rather than later.

Good luck

Sounds like a good reason to get a new roommate. Also a new tattoo...one that says, "put it in writing!" best place is on your forearm so that you can glance at it frequently, soemwhat like a wristwatch. ;-)

I don't suppose you discussed it in email that could be re-found?

You have my sympathy. And get anything else in writing.

What they all said...

Things like this are just crazy-making. I hope you do whatever your version of a pint of mint ice-cream is.

hugs.

Geep. ^^;

You saw the waif~ishness coming... Doesn't change the fact that some things suck...

On a completely off note, would you be up for going on a drive one of these days? The weather has been beautiful and I saw so many pretty roads with motorcyclists on them this weekend!
