Waiting
Fri Jul 17, 2009 5:19:42 pm
My bathroom doorknob has been broken for a while. It didn't really bother me, but the landlord's son, who does most of the maintenance, wants to fix it. He posted a note on my door yesterday with checkboxes to indicate possible time ranges when I would be at home today to let him in. I believe that I checked the noon to 1PM range, but I'm not 100% sure. He took down the paper while I was out and I didn't make a note of it. The time now is 12:19 and he is still not here. This is making me hypervigilant.

How does the landlord's son know your bathroom doorknob is broken?

He came by to inspect for problems.

1:03 and he is still not here.

That depends on what I'm waiting for. I always get hypervigilant when someone knocks on my door. Prolonged anticipation of it is worse.

Waiting for a date can be distressing, but I don't cancel due to lateness. I just suffer.

Consistent extreme lateness is different. I dated a woman who was frequently late by several hours. Her excuse was often oversleeping, but I think she was actually on dates with other men. I stopped dating her solely for this reason.

I used to be very early for work and now I'm usually 5-10 minutes late. I'm still early for dates.

1:19 and he is still not here. I'm certain that I did not pick the 2-3 time range.

Interesting question. I have seen him wear a green one. Why do you ask?

Maybe one of you is color blind.

Maybe this inverts in the ethereal body.

Fri Jul 17, 2009 6:38:32 pm
What?

Fri Jul 17, 2009 6:40:59 pm
That looks like two confessions.

Fri Jul 17, 2009 6:41:23 pm
Why????

2:00PM and he is still not here. He will probably knock on my door at some random inconvenient time tonight.

Rice milk is better.

I do not like surprise visits. I never answer the door if I'm not expecting someone. I have pretended to not be at home a few times when I got a surprise visit. When they called, I told them I was at work.

I eat it raw, cooked, and roasted. The raw form is very caustic when eaten directly without anything else. I only eat one clove raw. In all other forms, I eat very large quantities.
