my hero.*

my keys and i are not having the best relationship here. not only did i drop them down the sewer, but this past weekend, i left them in my room. and the door locked.

upon returning to the apartment, sweaty and exhausted, i realized i had no way into my room. this made me very unhappy.

i figured since it wasnt even 7, the landlady would be around somewhere, but after searching all the normal places she has been spotted, and without knowing which apartment is hers, i decided i would wait a bit. luckily, steinar did have his keys, so i was able to relax in his aircon for a bit, but eventually decided i should wait downstairs incase she came back. so i took my book and sat on the new benches at the bottom of the stairs.

as it became later and later, and the exhaustion from the weekend set in, i decided i needed to take actions into my own hands, and thought i would be able to break in by picking the lock. i first used steinars keys to see how similar they were, and of course, that made him want to come and watch my patheticness.

while i was picking away, he decided to try to break through my window. now it is covered with slats and behind those has a screen, but it is next to my door and if he could have gotten in, would have been able to unlock it.

which is exactly what he did. and i had access to my room, shower, clean clothes and my nice table-top-like bed.

yesterday, i went running for the first time because it was finally cool enough, and when i got finished, all i wanted was my cold shower. a few hours later, as i was still relaxing, i heard a knock on my door and thought it was our landlady. it was steinar, letting me know that i had left my keys IN the lock on the outside of my door. luckiy, he was the first one to notice.

moral of the story: i am really bad at keeping track of my keys, and thankfully, i have steinar to rescue them.**

*any sarcasm contained in this post is offset by the fact that im writing these notes.****

**comparatively, i am lucky that steinar is the person i am stuck with here. i could have done much worse.***

***i promise i did not include that note because i know that, one day, as he promised, he will read this.**** :]

****minus the one above this one.

props if you kept track of all of those footnotes.
