  That, my dears, is the sound of frustration.

  Oh yes, thwarted again, with only approx t-minus 32 hours until
  February 1st- and the rental agency has still not gotten their
  collective shiat together to get my name on the lease. I mean, how hard
  can it be, people? Jim, who is Such a Nice Man, keeps handing me off to
  this "Charlene" character at his office, who in turn hasn't
  communicated her progress to Jim, and has been redonkulously slow in
  following through on things. It wouldn't even feel so crucial if i
  hadn't already scheduled a moving company for saturday morning, and put
  down a deposit to reserve a truck.  Maybe I'm stupid for doing
  that, but at the time it seemed like it would be reasonable to
  anticipate that 2weeks was plenty of time to get the lease squared
  away, and i was already pushing the limit of advance notice for making
  reservations. Apparently not. Feh. Hatem.

  I don't think I would be so mad except I'm pretty clear on the fact
  that I was organized and prompt when it came to everything on my end,
  and everybody else in the scenario is being inefficient. I don't even
  care. I'll storm the goddamn realtor's office and start making demands
  if i have to. I just want- NEED- the keys in my hand by friday
  afternoon. That's all I ask. Why is this so hard?
