I'm on to you.

Have you ever noticed how Store 24 seems to have a bum problem? It seems like every single Store 24 has some homeless man standing out front. Now this may seem reasonable, since people coming out of Store 24s generally have change in their hands, but why is it that other convenience store chains don't have the same problem? Sure, you have the occasional beggar out front of quite of few of them, but none seem to have them quite so consistently as Store 24.

I submit to you that these beggars are in fact professional homeless men, paid by Store 24. It is my theory that somebody over at Store 24 H.Q. did the math, and figured out that if they could get even 1 in 10 customers to drop their change in that cup, they could make a tidy profit. And that's not even counting passers-by!

Well I'm on to you, Store 24.

Moving out... again.

So yesterday Tellef, Ethan, and I put down a down payment on an apartment for January. We'll be totally free of Northeastern's housing department and probably paying more, but at least we won't have to move again. We'll also each get our own bedroom, which is cool, and we'll also have 2 and a half baths. Don't ask me who puts two and a half bathrooms in a 3-bed apartment, but apparently somebody does. We're going to have to coordinate our showering schedules to make the most of the arrangements.

Now I unfortunately get to see the money go through every month and lament about how freaking expensive living is. We should have bought a house.

I killed a mouse

So after several days of seeing a mouse running to and from the closet in our living room, I finally broke down and bought mousetraps. Baited them with peanut butter and everything. I set them up, one in the pantry and one in the living room, and sat down to play fire emblem. Two hours later, there was a cute little mouse stuck in living room trap with his neck snapped. The end.
