earlier this week i sent a letter to the management company - certified, return receipt requested - stating my intent to vacate on the 30th, and a bunch of other details. and tonight i called my super and told him my plan to leave and the situation with the bug-infested furniture. he was actually very apologetic, even sympathetic, and sounded like he'll be very cooperative with me in the next few days.
he offered to "spray my furniture" if i wanted to keep it, but i know the spray he plans to use is not bed-bug octane, and i know it does NOT do the trick, so i don't want to think it works and then take new bugs/eggs with me to my nice clean NEW apartment. so he said he'll treat the apartment after i leave with the furniture in it. mmm-hmmm.
so i will spend my whole weekend not just packing, but attempting to debug everything in my new $300 packtite heating unit. the thing has already paid for itself by preventing me from having to repurchase about $600 worth of books. there's soooo much to do, and i have to do it alone because i'm too afraid to let my friend help me at the risk of them bringing bugs home with them, so i really should stop blogging and get back to the packing.
