stupid, stupid, stupid

I am at my wit's end with my land lady.

Yesterday she apparently thought I was gone for the weekend, even though I specifically told her the day before that I was leaving on FRIDAY for Vienna, so when I got home from Wieselburg last night I was locked out of the house. (She leaves the key in the door, so that even if you have a key, you can not get into the house from the outside... unless you break the door down... so what do I do? I go up to the front door and ring the doorbell... twice because she did not come the first time.

Upon opening the door she appologizes, then says she thought I was gone, and then asks why I didn't call, to which I respond... I wanted to check to see if someone was home first... (DUH!)

Then, I go downstairs, being polite and removing my shoes before I enter the house, so as not to get the floor muddy. I open my door to my room to find it COMPLETELY cleaned, all of my stuff rearranged... we aren't talking her just organized... NO, we are talking about things taken off of shelves, put on different shelves, jewelry moved, newpapers placed under each leg of my tripod... the coat hanger from the hall placed in my room, my clothes in my closet folded, the new sheets that are MINE that I put on my bed over the weekend taken out, new ones put in, (now I can't find my new ones... they disappeard), towels taken out of the bathroom, NO towels put back in, and EVERY SINGLE BOX I had been saving, thrown away...not to mention some newspapers I had been saving for classes.... THROWN AWAY!

ungh.

sorry for the rant.

other than the crazy lady, things are going very well. It's cold here now, averaging about 33-36 °F in the morning 2-3°C. The snow should be coming soon, which is exciting, but this also means that soon I will not be able to ride my bike to school, or the pool, or the train station which is slightly sad since it will mean I will have to wake up almost 30 minutes earlier...sigh.

On another note. The chocolate here is so good. This, I knew already, but in case you were feeling sad for me because of my landlady, I decided maybe it might be nice to make you slightly jealous too. :-)

The chocolate, the bread, the sausages.... YUM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Teaching is going VERY well in both schools. I know have two tutor buddies, one of whom I am meeting for the first time tonight, and I am getting two more next week! :)

Okay, I am done for now. I hope each and every one of you are doing well! :)
