"A real drama queen"

Oh, and speaking of both (1) the previous residents and (2) being gay, I had a nice little chat with the business manager today. Honestly, I'm really beginning to like her. She actually said, "Some of the people who live here are pigs--excuse my language, but that's how it is." Fortunately, she tells me my building "Is not a bad building" in this respect.

In any case, she mentioned that the seller's last renter had "absconded" with the front/back door key, which is why I'm stuck with only one until they change the locks. In a bout of further intelligence-gathering last weekend, e. had discovered from my downstairs neighbour that that renter was...er...problematic. So I ventured, "Yeah, apparently that renter was something of a case, eh?" And she responded, "A real head case, you're right. For starters, his hoop skirts wouldn't fit through the door."

Suddenly, the rationale for some of the past decorating choices becomes a bit easier to understand. Also, the warm reception I've been getting from the other residents. Oh, thank heavens! This one looks positively normal!

According to your downstairs neighbor with the Rottweiler, the purple-wall-painting tenants were also "drag queens on crystal meth, who would pace around in their high heels at 3 in the morning."

As long as they didn't set up a meth lab, like some of [livejournal.com profile] monshu's erstwhile upstairs neighbours.
