Confessions of a Litigious Mind

The random, irrelevant musings of a law school graduate.

the gross and the restless

my apartment building is somewhat of a soap opera, and i suppose it's partly my fault. i did leave a note on mary's door telling her that she needs to keep her cats inside. i didn't sign it.

fast forward to today. i'm taking santos outside, and irene (the toothless lady with the speech impediment, who is really nice) started getting into it with mary's butch (lesbian lover?) friend. it seems as though after i left the note, mary left one back on irene and paul's door that was pretty mean. then paul (irene's husband) left one back on mary's door. and now they're fighting. (though they were debating whether mary left a note on their door before i left the note, in which case my note would be irrelevant).

however, it should be noted that paul and irene have hated mary pretty much since she moved in. i've been here the longest (kill me now), then paul and irene, then mary. they've always argued with her, because she's sloppy, gross, dirty, smelly, and a cunt. paul has always told me that if mary gives me any trouble to let him know, because he's got my back and he works for our landlord.

i thought about joining the conversation when i was outside. i got pulled over to them because santos lacks a selectivity gene and went to butch and irene to be pet. but i didnt interject because it quickly became apparent that the argument was about much more than just the notes. stuff i didnt even know about, stuff that didnt have anything to do with me. i figured, i'm out of here in a week and a half, just ride it out.

irene and butch seem to have resolved the issue for now, but irene said she's still pissed at mary. and who wouldnt be. she's a hypocrite. for all the bitching she does about our dogs, her cats run loose, pissing and shitting all over the place. they attract other cats and even some dogs which do the same. she leave piles of trash outside in the common area. mary sucks.

The ongoing apartment saga has been one of the more fun themes of your blog.

By the way, are you keeping this going post- law school?

thanks. i think that this post is one of the better-written posts as of late myself. i think i do better with the story telling than with the ranting. since i find ranting to be occasionally necessary, i'll have to figure out a way to put it into a gentler story format.

i will definitely be keeping up with the blog after law school. it all started before law school for me, as a contributor to the workermonkey. i love to write, and i've really enjoyed blogging. i probably wont change the format much, or even the title, as it's not really related to law school anyway. i was probably litigious long before this.

life is about to go from mundane to really exciting, so i think i'll have a lot to write about in the future.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. I like your story posts, but let's be honest here--there's hardly a difference between the rants and the stories. Sure, this post was primarily a story, but there was a damned good rant in it.

I say write what you will. As long as it's angry. and slightly offensive.
