Very Educational

I have a friend who lives in GL who has encountered numerous problems, including having a $400 check stolen from her mailbox. She now has a P.O. box. She, like us, did not know what she was getting herself into when she moved into this neighborhood. The following text exchange occurred this evening:

Friend: You know you live in ghetto lite when...
Friend: you catch yourself googling "what does meth smell like when it's being cooked?"
Me: lol
Me: And what does it smell like?
Friend:Well it can have many different smells because it can be made so many ways, apparently.
Friend: The unusual smell in my apartment when I got home was kind like a burnt rubber. But that wasn't identified online, so I think I'm good.
Me: I'm glad something else potentially bad is happening instead of meth cooking. Less chance you'll die in an explosion this way!
Friend: Yes. Explosion would be just THE WORST.

Proof that you just never know what you'll learn in GL.

Notes, Notes, Notes

 I've noticed quite a few awesome notes around here lately that I thought I should share.

Apparently the people that we have considered the "Normal People" have ordered worms that they plan to store inside their crappy two bedroom apartment. I can get behind worms for composting but not within these little apartments.

This note has been recently placed in the laundry room. I actually had noticed that people have been putting their own trash in the laundry room trashcan, which I agree isn't quite right, but I certainly don't care enough to write a note. This note is clearly from NOLD.

Also placed in the laundry room by NOLD.

These words: "John Deer Babe Bacon Lover Sizzle Baby Sizzle" are written on the window of a car in the parking lot  outside our apartment building.

This in on a door at the local Meijer. I love how it looks like a second grader wrote it.

I hope you enjoyed a little glimpse of the notes in my life!
