So, tonight we had a meeting to establish the 'house rules'. Pretty simple things. Keep your music down, lock the door, don't leave lights on, etc. Kate just didn't get it. "Why can't we leave lights on? We're not paying for it." Ah, no, but our landlord is and he can up our rent if he wants. The lease just says that he needs to give us 2 weeks notice. Kate seemed to think that just because the lease said $500 that it couldn't be changed. No, sorry honey. Doesn't work like that. Turning lights off is in the lease too. If we violate the terms of the lease, the landlord can do whatever he wants.

She also didn't see what was wrong with leaving music on in her room and then leaving for a while. Sure, turn it on and go to the bathroom. That's no big deal. It's when you turn it on and then go have a half hour phone call downstairs that it's annoying. Others can hear it. Be considerate.

Then, she refused to sign the rules. Everyone else did, myself included, to say that we would follow them. She said that she'd follow them, but she wouldn't sign anything. "I already signed the lease. That's enough." Ah, no. These rules are so we don't kill each other. Or, more likly, so we don't kill you.

Anyway, that's my rant for the day. Everyone else was good about the rules. Hell, Chantal and Vanja came up with most of them. Hopefully we can get Kate kicked out for some reason. That would make life great.
