HEEEEEY, Morbs. I can't picture it exactly but I don't think I'd call anything around there "shitty". Fuck, I wish I could afford to move back. How much is the apt again?

a thousand. It's opposite some kind of therapy center, lotsa barbed wire -- no thx. Maybe if I was 26.

whoa google maps street view is kind of racist
― sanskrit, Monday, 12 May 2008 16:36 (sixteen years ago) link
how so?
I'm seeing rent-stabilized studio on Ocean Pkwy (nr Ditmas) tnite. I have feeling I'm going to be offered it if I like it -- of course, apt that's $225 a month LESS in Midwood is taking forever to get their paperwork together. So if I say no, I'll be taking Door #2, Monty.

Oh, actually, that might be across from the methadone clinic, and if so that might actually be the worst place in that part of Crown Heights to be. I take it all back.
skrit, googlemaps streetview loves them some mac-user demographic, huh? Turns out there's like nothing photo'ed east of Flatbush.

It looks like I am signing tomorrow for the 4th-floor apt in doorman bldg near the d1tm4s F stop. If I want to get out after a month, I'll just invite the noise board over to use the pool on the roof.
― Dr Morbius, Wednesday, 14 May 2008 15:33 (sixteen years ago) link
roof pool is pretty sweet!

hey, my landlady is threatening to keep my $900 deposit since I gave her 25 days' notice of moving instead of the prescribed 30! FUN.
I can't find my copy of the 'lease', but I don't doubt the 30 days are in there. I'm saved only in she gets a renter for 7/1.
Options short of murder?
― Dr Morbius, Friday, 6 June 2008 13:46 (fifteen years ago) link
isn't your landlady also forcing you to move out? omg what a bitchy move.
― bell_labs, Friday, 6 June 2008 13:49 (fifteen years ago) link
oh hey, i'm not banned from noise board anymore. weird!

I wanted to leave last year -- before I was attempted to slice and boil her fucking hyperactive kids -- but couldn't find anything.
I could've given her notice 3 weeks ago but saw no reason to. OOPS
It's Brooklyn, 2 stops from Pk Slope, she'll be able to find a fucking tenant. (esp with that smiling "You won't hear A THING down here" bullshit she used on me)
― Dr Morbius, Friday, 6 June 2008 14:00 (fifteen years ago) link
attempted = tempted
(The upstairs tenant also wants the kid to vanish)
btw, landlady has huge weightlifter husband.

DrMorbius: I know of a little boy's brothel in western Russia that's looking for a new disciplinarian-- they could really use someone with your jaguarian prowess. pays well. perhaps you will consider this path???

oh, it also looks like I'll have to move the morning after getting back from 5-day vacation. FUN NEVER STOPS

― s1ocki, Thursday, 19 June 2008 17:14 (fifteen years ago) link
well, she might have a renter (and keep dep anyway by claiming the place ain't clean enough)

The friend staying in my apartment over the weekend looked at my land line and said, "Hey, my parents have one of those."
