Broken feet & cheese..

Just a couple things that have made me giggle lately! (I couldn’t make this up if I tried...) Ok, maybe I could but with so much material I will never have to.

“My credit is bad because I’m a dancer, and broke both of my feet”

“Quick settle our debate! Was Dukakis Greek?” My question of the week during the meeting of the minds with 80 year olds in the pool area. (They think I’m a genius, and I answer all of their questions.)

“I don’t like cold cheese in my mouth” totally random we were talking about the size of the unit.

“Of course I remember you how can I forget being locked out of a unit, and having to scale the fence” It’s true I met with a banner designer, and was showing him where I wanted a banner... trick was we had to go out the window 1st floor to see it (long story) and then the window slammed shut.. (With our cell phone’s inside of course) nothing in front of us but the concrete wall, and a fence... that we had to scale to get out. I guess it would be hard to forget me for that.

Thursday Nonsense

Just ridiculousness..

1) "Has anyone found my assport?" "I can't find it anywhere" (He meant passport...)

2) I had a guy call, and say "Hi I'm looking for a friend"
He literally was.. I learned this the hard way 20 minutes later after thinking that he was looking for an apartment for his friend, (silly me) and couldn't get off the phone..

3)"I'm not worried I used to be a hit-man apprentice" (I've got nothing here..)

4) Fantastic that I actually have to post notices like this..

"There have been a pile of dirty clothes sitting on the counter top for over a week. Note: the clothes have been bagged up, and will be disposed of by 5/13/11 if unclaimed.Please contact the office if they belong to you."

The urgency in my tone is because they smell.. (YAK!)

Just Awesome

Awesome things that I have done, or have been said to me.

1) "Wow you look great. You are back to the size from when you were 19" My first thought was wait.. you didn't know me and I didn't work here when I was 19, then I remembered crap yes you did.. I'm getting old..

2) I had this girl inquire about an apartment online named Nasaline I realized after the fact that I responded to her like this. "Hi Nasonex thank you, for your interest" oops..

3) This guy applied for an apartment, and was told he needed to pay a bigger deposit to move-in. We kept going round and round, and he keeps trying to bargain, and work a deal which I reply to with sorry no deal. He sends me an e-mail at the end of the day with a "new suggestion" I forward it to my boss saying "OMG!! This guy won't take no for an answer" Guess what.. I did not hit forward.. I hit reply by mistake.. (doh)

"The King and I" (I mean eyebrow)

I have this resident that looks the king from "The King and I" bald head, black eyeliner you get the idea. Anyway he walked into my office with his black painted on eyebrows and begins to complain about how hot it is, and begins to wipe his face.. (you know what's coming)

As he wipes his face, I step back a little shocked because he has just wiped one of his eyebrows off. As he continues to talk he continues to wipe his face and then WIPE! there goes the other eyebrow. At this point I'm trying not to giggle and listen. He gets up and goes to leave

Again I say nothing.. then my boss walks in jumps back and says "WOW" and just stares at him. The guy looks at my boss funny then turns, and leaves.

So.. am I wrong? How do you tell someone "oh wait you got something there..?"

Lucy Jingles is now "Mr Jingles"

Update to last weeks blog.. (I know you have been on the edge of your seats waiting for this!!) I finally met her I mean him (The dwarf hamster). Read the previous blog if you have no clue who i'm talking about.

Ok moving along apparently she is really a he so that's why there is a change of names. Mr Jingles is a supposedly a rat or something from the movie "The Green Mile"? (no clue I have never seen it) anyway I promised a pic and here it is!

I also took a video of him. After some training he spun around on his wheel like a hamster.. I think I may have trained him with my mind, because the resident said he had never done that before. (muaa haa haa) I love how's she yells at him to "get back on!"

The next visit I am told is to show me the outfits (my resident) is making for him.

Can't wait.. (seriously)

Mouse Trap On My Desk..

So I have a Mouse trap I like to put out on my desk every now and then...

I put it out a couple days ago and forgot about it. Both yesterday and today I have had people say:

"Do you have mice in your apartments?"

and every time I respond

"uh no... Why do you ask?"

then they remind me of the trap I have on my desk.

I then ask them to stop, actually read it, and push the button.

(Side note: I was messing with it, and was hoping I could get it to actually work, but I have been told I am missing a piece... HA)

Lucy Jingles

I know it's been awhile but I promise to update more often. For today I have decided to post a funny conversation.

Resident: "Hey I got a new pet and wanted to tell you about it"

Me: "Ok, what type of pet is it?"

Resident: "Oh she's a hamster, she just glorious!"

Me: " I see.. what's her name?"

Resident: "Lucy Jingles, I'm going to bring her to meet you tomorrow, I really want her to make friends"

Me: "Great.."

So now I have something to look forward to tomorrow, socializing with a little hamster. (Hopefully it is little, and doesn't smell) *I will post a photo after our play date.
