Busted Plans

[comicallydim]

I was looking forward to this weekend for a while. I got my first big paycheck, from working for the state. I was going to use it and go out and get kittens, as I had been talking forever about wanting pets. In addition, Chelsea had invited us up to play Laser Tag in Marietta on Friday night. So Friday at work couldn't go by quick enough

You know that its a deposit, right? Meaning that you get it back when you leave if your pets haven't done any permanent damage? If you want kittens, go ahead and drop the $500. It'll be worth it. Then when you move you can use that $500 to pay for the deposit at the next place.

Except that if you've ever had pets, especially baby pets, you know that there is no way in hell that you can go even one month without them screwing something up. It's the nature of having a pet. That's why they have these crazy-high pet deposits, because they know that there's no way in hell you're ever getting it back!

Unless you just pay to have the damage fixed for a cost less than the deposit.

The truth is I am not going to get any of my deposit back, because of the iPod shaped hole in my wall.
