Last week's monday, Ada discovered her PC had been stolen. Goodbye nice Toshiba and the hours of work on her projects for uni. We called the police that told us the building was not safe anyway to secure our possessions, even if we live in a big street.
The landlord then revealed the existence of a deadlock on the building entry door (oh really!) and provided us with a double of the key so that we can lock the door. We asked the kebab's employees, who use the ground floor as a deposit, to keep the door locked.
But of course, the following thursday, somebody forgot to lock the door and we found the flat burgled again, with Ada's second PC stolen! Well, it was not working, but anyway...
And now, the landlord is on holidays so we'll have to wait before getting a real door!

We had several problems with the flat. Problems about the date to take the money from my account, problems with the gas installation, problems with the inventory... But each time we have something to disagree with, the estate agency answers "but you signed this paper" (that I don't have a copy of) or "but the place was safe at the very moment you moved in, even if it was bound to be dangerous one day or another" or even "we don't have any written proof of that".
The last straw was when they called at my office asking for money before the date we agreed on, otherwise we'd be sued! I told him I didn't have any money and he answered: "Well, go to your bank, ask your parents, I don't know." and I took it the wrong way. When he also told me I was not his client (they just charged us 360£ for their services after all), I took it the wrongest way possible. I insisted to tell him I was very disappointed by their services and he started to tell me he was trying to help me, and I took it the wrong way too and I got mad at him on the phone! My colleagues were astonished and when I hung up, Hege told me she could give me my salary sooner if I wanted!
Oh, thanx Sennep. They, at least, support me.
Later, we discovered Foxtons were some kind of motherfuckers who were already ill-considered after a report from the BBC that completely destroyed them, several law-suits and a website called We Hate Foxtons. We subscribed.

The kebab shop closed for some time. The health and safety services stated there's a high risk of contamination with the food! Apparently, a mouse walked in front of the people from the m during the inspection. However, the shop has already re-opened.
The thing is, since the mice have been taken away from the kebab shop, they come to our place now! We've been seeing them every day lately and I hardly sleep given how much they party the night in the kitchen. SHIT FLAT!!!

Merry Christmas to everyone, a good health, loads of money and love! (I have the feeling these wishes are actually for me... Anyway, it's for everybody!)
Hello, I'm Cameron Diaz! Yeah, I'm also Justin Timberlake's girlfriend! Yeah, now that I'm with him, I'm a totally new woman! Look at my new look! And my black hair! But I also had a nose job, because, well, he didn't like it! Oh, Justin really is a very good beauty adviser!

Astrologists agre to say this is the coming of the age of Aquarius. This is the age during which the Man will apparently be "illuminated", and it would explain all the latest big discoveries, but also the opening of mind of societies lately with gay weddings, abortions, and stuff.
However, they don't agree about the date. Some say it's 2007, some 2012, and some we're already there*.
Anyway, we may have done breakthrough discoveries these late years, even centuries, but I have the feeling we're regressing lately, with the comeback of censorship, the cancelling of gay weddings in Canada and the rise of Christine Boutin near Sarkozy (she became one of his politic advisers, she might be minister of the family if Sarkozy wins the presidential elections...).
Oh, I hope we're gonna be soon in this damned age of Aquarius, and that it's no bullshit!
* I've just checked on Wikipedia and apparently, it won't before... the 27th century!!! But, well, in the French version, they say 3573!!! What a swindle!!!

Lately, this happened in Birmingham:
A woman who makes people call her "Jane Doe" paid for a billboard to display a message to her husband and his mistress, who's also her best friend. She says that they're bastards, that she changed the locks, burnt his clothes and emptied their joint account.
I think it's really funny, however, I doubt the truthfulness of this story. First, the fact that the woman uses fake names to denounce her cheating husband doesn't make sense. Then, the fact that each time they talk about that story, they give the name of a radio show that allegedly gave advice to Jane, I think it's more of some kind of advertisement.
Such a shame. I loved the "I burnt your clothes" thing.

I was alone working on my PC in my bed when I saw a mouse running beside me towards the kitchen! Bitch! I'm here, the light is on and it's jogging! Fucking moron!!!
Well, my case is nothing compared to Ada's. She saw one coming out of the sink. Since then, we're kind of hygiene maniacs. But even if the kitchen has never been so clean, they keep on passing by, those fucking bastards!
This time, it's WAR!
I'm no intellectual I'm no stupid
I'm not rich I'm not poor
I'm not handsome I'm not ugly
I'm not right-wing I'm not left-wing
I'm not a woman But I don't fancy them
I'm no fatalist But I don't believe in chance
Truth is leaning
