hello my dear friends and family,
the sun just set and ended a glorious day of sunshine and blue sky. it was a day of rest and friendship. i went to see my friends at meadowview where i babysit once a week. we had lunch together in their beautiful backyard. i talked to my landlord this morning and she refuses to pay me back the whole amount of money. her opinion is that she had to say no to two people when she said yes to me and now she has to start all over again. i tried to reason with her that i am in the same boat. i didn't mention to her that i can stay at my friend's house for the time being and even rent out a room here. but i still think we are both at the same point right now. and i don't feel responsible for not taking the room in the end cause if i hadn't seen her that drunk, NO if she hadn't been that drunk then i would have moved in by now. but i haven't even lived in that room or even moved anything in yet so why should i pay rent for that? yes it is too bad that she has to start all over again but so have i and i won't charge her any money. so i went to the police station and asked them for legal advice. they gave me a number to call cause they personally won't get involved cause it is too complicated. the whoile landlord/tenant thing. so i will call the number tomorrow and see what they say.
alrighty then, so far from here.
love

Jewels, I hope you got some helpful advice when you called the help-line. Here is what I think:
Assuming that you had not signed a contract but you had a verbal contract with the lady, a lawyer would probably say that the landlady had done nothing to keep you from moving in and enjoy all the benefits of living in the room she rented you. The fact that she was dead drunk in her kitchen is none of your business - she might have been on Mars or in Alaska as far as it concerned you. We, on the other hand, know that you were saved from moving in. Don't make too much more of it. Just take what money you can persuade her to give back,and be grateful to the Universe for the relatively cheap lesson!
love S~
