Suck 2: The Suckening:
Came out of the shower today to the most horrible stink imaginable. Burning plastic mixed with um...let's say "human waste". I look all over the apartment to make sure the cats didn't start a fire and try to pee it out or something. Finally I check in the hallway to make sure its--but wait. The hallway is full of smoke and even whiffier. I wake up H and call maintenance, who comes right over. They bang on every door in the building and finally discern that the culprit is the woman down the hall. She has aparently lived here 5 years and just found out how her self cleaning oven worked...so she thought she'd give it a try. If I'd known the olfactory nightmare she woudl subject us to, I surely would have offered to scrub out her oven for her. Because um...ew. This is yet another in the whole "Yes hello, you do not live alone in this building" shenanegans I have to endure to live in this anty, loud, leaky floor having apartment.
Checked the mail while I was out in the hallway. Still have not heard back from the 2 publishers I queried in the beginning of January. So those rejections should arrive any day now. I also got turned down for A-ride assistance, so I get to pay full fare cab when I can't ride the bus. Aparently the AATA drivers are trained in dealing with panic attacks--I guess we'll just see about that. ;-}
I need to eat something, but who can eat amdist this stench? Oh, and it seems that Pentelope has befouled my SpongeBob bathroom rug. Yuck.
But on the plus side:

Which Historical Lunatic Are You?
From the fecund loins of Rum and Monkey.
