"Get used to disappointment..."

There's nothing more pathetic than waiting endlessly for a phone call that never comes. But, of course, Rhett Miller said it best: If that phone don't ring one more time/I'm going to lose what's left of my mind...
I know it's stupid to hope it will still ring. It won't.
In other news, the building inspector from the Housing Authority came by yesterday to check out the apartment building. I'm not sure exactly why -- I know the landlord's trying to unload the place or else take out a second mortgage, but it may be one of those "once every few years" things. In any case, the inspector went into the bathroom and noticed the mold. Evidently, he then tapped the wall to test it for "soundness," and that is why there's now a giant hole in the wall of my bathroom. It crumpled under the gentle kick, sending plaster flying. Maybe this means my broken window will finally get fixed.
