...and judging from the amount of stuff in my apartment that was rearranged in the process, it looks like the delay might have been partly my fault again (although, again, LEAVE A DAMN NOTE if you need me to move stuff!)

I tried to get in touch with the office last Friday and Saturday to ask about that, but Friday he was busy with tech support, and Saturday the office was closed. Office is still closed. Since what he was complaining about was a lack of network connectivity from the office, I'm guessing he's working from home until he resolves that.

And, wow -- in retrospect I should have guessed, but they couldn't just move the fridge the five feet from where it sits to the door, because the little door between the kitchen and entrance hall is too small. So instead they had to take it out through the opposite side of the kitchen (moving my garbage can out of the way) through the storage nook (moving my D+D books out of the way) and living room (moving my folding table, piles of comic books under the folding table, and empty laptop bag out of the way) to get back to the entrance hall from the other end.

With the old fridge dripping foul-smelling fridge-juice the whole way, of course. So now I have to clean the floor. But I have a fridge again at least.

While cleaning the floor of all the goop spilled on it while they were replacing the fridge, I found a notice that I was late on my rent, that they'd apparently tossed carelessly on the floor TODAY and dated June 7th.

Only I wasn't late on my rent. I checked my lease for the amount due per month, and my bank statement for the amount written on the check that they'd cashed June 3rd, and lo and behold, they match!

Now I just need to somehow get in contact with them to work this out.

EDIT: It took some doing to track down the manager this morning -- he wasn't in his office, but he was on-site, and one of the workers pointed me to the apartment he was probably working on. They gave me the wrong number, but I found him.

Turns out it was a computer error that they'd already fixed, but they hadn't sent out retractions because most of the overdue notices were to people who no longer lived in the complex -- I was the only tenant who'd gotten an overdue notice in my own name.

And the delay replacing the fridge was because he's the new manager and hadn't been added to the account that let him make those kinds of purchases yet.

GOD, I was stressing out about it all night, to the point where I had trouble sleeping. ... well, a little trouble. Not as much trouble as if I'd eaten mexican for dinner or anything.
