He pulled this shit last year, and it was a huge ordeal, and I told his dumb ass to just send us a fucking bill every month, and we'll include the amount when we pay rent (he pays gas, we pay electricity... bills go to him).

I called the energy company, and I can't do shit because it's not in my name. It's also impossible to get a hold of my landlord. All he has to do is call them and set up a payment plan, no biggie. So, looks like I'm going back to the stone age tomorrow... Oh well, I guess, I just picked up a bunch of books to read. Nothing I can do about it now.

Work sucked, keep realizing that it's not really what I want to do... This firm is cool and all, but it's focus isn't in line with mine. I was on the phone with the energy company this morning while I was making lunch to bring to work, and got so frustrated that I forgot it. Also, I have to go back to work tomorrow to re-do some shit. ugh.

I think i'm going to get plastered tonight... and buy some candles.
Bring it up to the police? Regardless that is bullshit and also fucking up his credit quite a bit.

Also to have you shell out $1500-$2000 at the end of the year is also unruly. Time to contact the BBB and the state for rental rights

i probably would have seen this coming since he's done it before and saved money each month like i was paying the electric bill, then when i got the bill, i'd have enough to pay it.

That would be the logical way to do it.

yeah, that probably would have been a good idea. Although he did say that he would try and get better on getting us bills more frequently, that never happened (like thousands of other things with this house). If I was a real asshole, I could fuck him over real bad, but that's not the type of person that I am.

If he really tries to fuck us, though, it's on like donkey-kong.

Well, i guess i'll just wait for someone to call wanting to know where their units are. Then next day them.
I don't think anybody here knows what the fuck you're talking about.
