It has been 9 days since my last post here on Steemit, and that's not because I have lost interest in the platform. It's because my life for the past few days has been a nightmare that almost defies description. I don't have the energy or mental fortitude to describe it to you in all of its gory detail right now, but suffice to say that I have had to move twice.
I moved out of my house and into a new house, where the crazy landlord (who was for some reason snooping around while I was moving in) immediately noticed the movers unloading dogfood and went into conniptions about the house's strict NO PETS POLICY! This is despite the fact that their house was listed as Pet-friendly all over the internet listings and the realtor who showed us the house told us that dogs were acceptable with a deposit.
She literally told the movers to stop moving me in, even though all of my stuff was already in the house. She forced me to give her the keys because "the lease doesn't start until tomorrow!" So I had to give a crazy, raving lunatic woman the only key I had to a house that contained all of my possessions.
Then, the next day, I had to meet with her at 10:30 AM (at which point she bizarrely offered me vodka!) to move all of the stuff I'd moved into her house back to the house I'd just moved out of. So, over the course of two days, I literally moved my stuff from House A to House B, then back from House B to House A.
So, after weeks of preparing to move and months of looking for a new place, I have ended up exactly where I started, just with all of my stuff in boxes and my house in absolute disarray.
I'm sure my haters will get a good laugh at my expense on this one. And I'm glad that I can at least bring them joy, because for me this has been nothing but a miserable experience.
Did I mention that my back was out during the entire duration of these events and I couldn't even stand up straight, let alone walk without a pronounced limp?
Fucking bloody hell.
I'm only scratching the surface of this insanity. But I thought you should all know why I have been so inactive these past few days.
