Neighbors, Fictional Husbands, and a Meme
Most of the time, I feel like people of my generation (and younger) don't know how, nor do the understand the concept, of being unobtrusive and respectful. It's like everyone is jumping up and down, waving their hands in the air, and screaming, 'Look at me! Look at me!' It's obnoxious and clashes severely with my low-key mentality.
Jason and I have one foot out the door of our current living situation. We've been in this apartment for well over four years. Mostly, things are just dandy. Unfortunately, that all hinges on the other residents wanting to contribute to the nice atmosphere. Over the last two years, I've noticed an influx of residents who don't last long, but are very disruptive or shady. I'll be the first to admit that I'm an extremely picky neighbor who holds those around me to high standards, but some things are just downright ridiculous. Unfortunately, we just signed a year lease without really thinking about the consequences. And now we're stuck here until July of next year unless we want to break the lease. Breaking the lease entails shelling out a thousand bucks to the incompetent drones in the management office.
I'd write a detailed blog about the girl next door and her many troubles, but I just can't be bothered. Long story short, I'm not comfortable living next to her, though I have no problem with her personally. And there's nothing I can really complain about to the management office, though there are illegal bits and bobs going on over at her place. So, I don't know...
Jason and I went to look at new beds today. I'm probably going to go back tomorrow and purchase the one we want. We're not exactly ready for it to be delivered this weekend, but I'd like them to set it up next weekend, if possible. The way things are going around here, we might be taking it apart so we can move in another week. I just hate eating the thousand dollar fee for breaking in the lease. Uck.
Everyone else is doing it, so I guess I will, too. As for the result... So, so, so accurate. I love Snape, but he and I could never work out. I'm under no delusions.
Also, there is a lovely meme going around, and![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
subvers tagged me to give a dedication for my fic Love Him in My Absence.
To all the wonderful Harry Potter fiction writers out there who sparked and inspired my imagination, and to Jason who doesn't make fun of me for sitting in front of the computer at midnight, frantically typing.
Tag 3-5 people on your f-list and ask them to whom they'd dedicate their fic (that you've chosen of course) if it were published "for real." Then those folks have to tag someone else. Make it fun, but make it real.
I'm tagging:
moonrevel for the Squandered Heart
dreamy_dragon73 for Of Surprises and Detours
falco_conlon for Sinaloa Sea Breeze (which I had no idea was updated to Chapter 4! ::runs off to read::)

Your result for The Harry Potter Husband Test...
Mrs. Lupin
You like a nice, kind guy with a bit of a fierce streak and you don't mind if he comes damaged. Sure, he may take some convincing since his self-esteem's so low, but once you win him over, you know he's yours for life. Unless of course he has an attack of "I'm not good enough" and runs away, but luckily he's also good at making friends who will push him back into line if necessary.
