Oct. 16th, 2002 11:17 pmI ran into my neighbor as I was lugging huge bags of dirty towels and blankets and bedsheets to my car for a laundromat run.
She was telling me about the kook that lives below her on the other side of the building. Apparently, he stole the 9 volt battery out of the smoke detector outside her door. She watched him do it through the peephole in her door, and luckily she had a calculator or something with an additional 9 volt, so that she could replace it.
The next day she finds him fucking with the smoke detector again, so she comes out and says, "May I help you?" and he explains that he's replacing the battery. She tersely informs him that she's already done that.
Apparently, he's stolen lightbulbs from the stairwell and basement sockets as well.
He sounds like an antisocial fucknut. It also explains the darkness in the basement, as a lightbulb was missing for about a week. Bizarre.
I have huge amounts of freshly-scented towels and blankets and sheets. I have houseguests coming this weekend. I am about halfway ready.
Tomorrow, I clean the floors and vacuum and straighten, and do a little shopping.
I want to carve a pumpkin this weekend. Perhaps toast the seeds.
G'night.
