Coming To You From Beyond The Grave

First off, I am not dead.

Secondly, I did not quit blogging.

Thirdly, your emails?  They touched me.  Inappropriately.  They made me take my top off and they touched me.  It was very uplifting.

On to your questions:

Jill Pilgrim, why did you stop posting?

Short prison sentence.  Which may or may not be related to the male prostitute ring that I was running.  And those prostitutes may or may not have dressed as bananas, koala bears, and hamburgers.

Did Ben finally escape from the basement and exact his revenge?

No, Ben is still safely chained to the radiator.

But, no, seriously, what happened?

Two words.  Legal action.  One more word.  Landlord.  Three last words.  Nervous fucking breakdown.

You may remember that I moved recently.  You may also remember that shortly after moving Ben and I discovered that our place was infested with bats.  And mice.  And red squirrels.  Oh, and there’s arsenic in the water.  Three times the legal limit.

So um, yeah.  Not good.  Not good at all.  Its been a crazy few weeks.  Weeks filled with me making public scenes <- Seriously.  There was the time that I accosted my landlord, chasing her into another tenant’s apartment.  She was trying to escape me.  Because I was screaming at her about the water.  And, um, I had a video camera.  <- That shit totally happened.

And there was the time that we had a tenant meeting.  And I brought a tape recorder and yelled a lot.  And then my tape recorder was taken away by my landlord’s husband.  Who is also her lawyer.  He put my tape recorder in the freezer.  <- No, really.  That shit totally happened.  In real life.  He couldn’t figure out how to turn my tape recorder off, and he didn’t trust me to turn it off, so he put it in the freezer.

So many water tests, health inspectors, exterminators, lawyers, and tears later, its finally over.  Our landlord officially, in writing, released us from our lease yesterday.  And it was GLORIOUS.

So, um, I’m back.  Hopefully I have not been kicked out of your reader.  In order to win back your trust and to show you that I’m serious about making this work, I’m going suggest we go to couple’s counseling.  At my church.  Where Jesus lives.
