Dear doorstop diary

12 Aug

Looks pretty ‘weird landlord’ normal at first glance, right?

The usual, clearly laid out instructions.

A thank you and the trademark smiley face.
A line to make sure you don’t get the two mixed up.

No message on the back (yet) but the line continues quite nicely all the way over.

I was full of glee when I saw the doorstop at first. Then, was flipping it around to take pictures of what I already found to be highly entertaining and voila…

…what might be the first doorstop diary entry ever in history.
(mouse over the pics for some additional commentary!)

Can’t stop singing “Let’s all go to the lobby, with a doorstop from the laundry”
to this…

…and now the tune will be wedged in your head too! You are welcome.

    My fear is what the door stop plans to do at that point in time. I’d watch out. Luckily, a door stop makes noise as it slides across the floor, I’m sure.

    My prediction is that he (because of course the face looks masculine) changes from being a kind gentleman that holds the door to a jerk that lets it fly shut in a stray tenant’s face.

    Scary stuff.

    Truly frightened,
    D.

      Okay, the doorstops were blank when he started to hand them to me, then on second thought, he whisked them away, returning them so I could move in my new furniture, only they now had full instructions and beady little eyes to make sure I followed through…no kidding!

      Your words have stuck with me D. Thanks for the added paranoia!
