Noa,
I don't know how things work on your side of the world (New York if I remember correctly?), but here in California a landlord or his employees are not allowed to enter your premises without written permission (although verbals are acceptable in some cases). The only exception being if they believe that there is a situation that threatens property damage, such as fire, broken water pipe, etc. As far as the condition of your home, as long as you're not putting holes in the walls, ripping up the carpet, breaking windows or something like that, it's none of their damn business how you keep your home! This is clearly a violation of your right to privacy. I would look at your lease and find out exactly what they are allowed to do and not do. Then check with your states rental laws and make sure that your landlord is complying with them. God Noa, I would be SO PISSED! I guess whether or not to push the issue depends on whether you feel up to it or not, but at the very least let the landlord know that this is totally unacceptable to you and any further violations will be reported to the police. If someone is allowed to enter your home without getting permission, what's not to say that some unscrupulous person wouldn't help themselves to your belongings? It happens all the time. OK, end of tirade.My day was pretty good, no major FUBAR. Thanks for asking. I actually have a day where my son doesn't have a game or practice to go to (Little League...) I got to come home and sit in front of the computer (one of my addictions) and relax. I've contacted a research institute here locally that is trying out some new meds for GAD. I have an appt with them next Tuesday to meet with their Psychiatrist for an hour. If that goes well them I go thru a physical, if I pass that they will start me on the new med. They won't tell me what the med is though, and I'm a little concerned about that, I've never really viewed myself as a guinea pig.... The Wellbutrin seems to be triggering my anxiety (I think...therefore I am?) and thought something new might be worth a try, probably should let my doc know about it though, huh? I am going on vacation (I'll really miss you guys) for a week starting next Wednesday (camping in beautiful Southern Utah), and I'm really getting excited about that, except for meeting my wife's father, I hear he's a real piece of work. WOW! I'm getting excited about something, maybe I am getting better, baby steps I suppose. Well Noa, I didn't mean to talk your ear off, but when I heard about your "break in" I just really had to say something, it really is total b**ls**t. Let me know what happens, his excuse should be interesting....
You have Bell Atlantic, we have Pacific Bell....cute.
Have a peaceful evening,
Greg
