Moving On

A HORRENDOUS BANGING accompanied by insults from Surlystein the Jamaican workman (lots of "rass") awoke me from an ill-feeling coma at half past mid-day. Szechuanstein handed me a letter saying my accommodation is "cancelled" (except it can't be as I don't get somewhere else until tomorrow morning). Meanwhile I've an appointment this afternoon to come in and sign documents relating to an empty new place "with a different agent" (thank the Lord). Hopefully, once I get my stuff out of the old dump I shall never ever have to have any dealings with Evilstein/Betterstein (aka Butterstein) or any of their henchmen ever again...

I even managed to summon a faint enthusiasm about the matter while ambling up the road in sleepdrunken misery (bc I really did not have enthusiasm for getting out of bed, no matter what the reason)... but like a Disprin plopping in a glass, it fizzed and faintly suffused me.

MOVING ON!

MUSIC VIDEOS:

1. David Bowie and Marianne Faithfull: I've Got You Babe
What a rare classic this one is! PS I don't know what Marianne Faithfull was wearing. It WAS the 1970s...




2. Madonna ft Timberlake and Timbaland: Four Minutes
From the übermistress of pop, this is one of her best tunes (yet again; how does she do it?)




Are Airedales and wire fox terriers the same? Clickonthis for info, including a picture of Baby Itchy's looky-likey sitting on the kitchen floor...

Three Tiny Trotters as doggies...

  4. Arjan: I hope so too. From the outside not so inspiring. I get to view the interior tomorrow morning

    Velvet Ginger RJ: those swines shall be my 1st move!

    Daisy: Yeah it is hard. Unlike a roborovski I don't just get dumped down there with fresh newspaper and can't run on a wheel to work off my anxiety. Then fall asleep in a lightbulb box with 2 other pink noses and wake up again tomorrow in a totally new enclosure as if nothing at all has happened...

  6. Here's hoping that your new digs will be better and a happier place to be. Moving is always difficult but it helps if the new place has possibilities for new and fresh arrangements of belongings.

  7. ZenWizz:I've signed a contract today. He asked if I had pets I said yeah a hamster he said "they're very strict on that now" and ticked "no" on the form. What I signed said nothing at all about "no pets" so HAH!!

    I will certainly contact Goldstein's lawyers... (next time I'm in New York. We don't really get Jewish lawyers over here)

    LoneGrey: I hope it genuinely IS better... they made it sound that way but the outside of the new place didn't look so inspiring and besides I don't believe NOTHING until I've seen it and lived it for myself. Even then I can never be sure it was real and not just a figament of my sleeper's imagination

  11. Sofia: thanks! I can't dredge up the word for "thank you" in Porgutuese (though I'm sure somewhere I have it in my capacious mind...)

    Liz: How did you know the new contact is a lady? Did I say that somewhere? Or are you psychic?
