rassin frassin lawn mower. Stupid thing broke when I was partway through my lawn. And broke in a 'not gonna be fixed' way too. That's what I get for getting the cheapest one I could find, but it's not like I could afford anything better. Or course, now I have to get another one.


SG Mate: Cien, what the hell is this Rookery thing?
RadDidIt: (interjecting) Dude. It's the Rookery.
SG Mate: Yeah, but what IS it?
RadDidIt: Silliness Incarnate.

*walks in with an iced tea in hand*

Good Morning everyone. Neko, I would've thought you wouldn't be here, what with the overabundance of catnip gas still here from yesterday.


Don't know what's going on, but it ain't bad.

They're probably going to be out for days.

And this is the only plus of living in the city. No lawns to mow. Well, I hope you get a better lawnmower Neko.

*waves* Good morning everyone.

Hello to all the new arrivals. The really stupid thing Emmi? I never use my lawn for anything. I'd much rather it was just paved over or something. The old landlord used to take care of all the yardwork and trash pickup, but since he sold the houses to another person a few years ago, she makes us to it all. And raised our rents too.

At least I got most of my lawn done. I really should have done it a week ago, but I've been feeling horrible this past week, and just got over it. Unfortunately, in that time was when the grass grew in thick and tall, and while trying to cut it, it kept jamming up, and at one point while trying to push through (it's a manual, ugh) the freaking handle snapped right off. Cheap workmanship.

Well, nothing I can do about it now. Just have to save up for a new one. Time to just kick back and relax today. Oh, and beat up the Joker some.

Hrm. Around here, the landlord's suppose to be responsible for the yardwork, shoveling snow, and repairs.

Depends on area and such. Around here and out in the sticks where I am it's up to the landlord what they want to do. This new landlord didn't know what she was getting into when she bought these houses. Paid way to much for them and thought it would be just 'buy the place, money comes in'. She didn't take into account she's responsible for upkeep on the places. Recently the septic tanks had to be pumped out again. She's unwilling to have them fixed like they need to be done. Then she tried to get us to foot the bill. That didn't go over well. Obviously she couldn't since it's part of upkeep that a landlord has to cover, but she did lose one of the tenants over it. And I'm not to far from going myself.

I don't blame you. You've got a raw deal. I'd be shopping around for a new place myself.

Sounds like the landlord has gotten way over their head. Careful they dont up and stop paying their mortgage but still taking your rent. You come home one day and all your stuff is on the street and picked through because they got foreclosed on.

I've seen it happen.

The fact that you had to buy a lawnmower out of your own money for upkeep of the house and other tenants is pretty lame too.

No other tenants. It's just me in the house, the other people take care of their own lawns. I'm not that stupid...
