When I was looking at the lock a kid, I suppose a neighbor, told me that he had a similar lock, that if I wanted to try with his keys, and I told him that they probably wouldn't work, but he went for them anyway, I tried but they didn't work, the kid was asking me things like if I was going to live there, and... some other things that I don't remember :P, he was a little to social for my liking, lol.
When the guy from Telmex arrived I told him about the problem, and that if he could go there again but on Saturday, since I wasn't sure if the owners could go and remove the lock, he said yeah, no problem.
Later that day at my work I was talking with a friend there and told her about what happened, and she told me that it was probably that kid, I didn't want to believe it, why would a kid do that. Even later I received a call from my landlord because I sent her an email about what had happened, she was pretty confused, she told me that she only put one lock, but that she and her husband would go later to remove it.
I was a little stressed because of that, that same day I paid for my bed, I bought it on mercadolibre, supposedly the manufacturer was the one selling it, and I could either pay in cash when I received what I bought, or pay with "mercadopago", I decided to pay that way since I don't like to have money with me, a little big mistake on my part, the contact they gave me (a hotmail email, not even with the name of the manufacturer) told me that I had to mark the sale like it was already finished and that I had received whatever I bought, I was a little hesitant, because it could be easily a fraud even if the seller had many good reviews, luckily it wasn't, but it made me think a lot before doing it, I made a bet, but next time I buy there I'll either pay in cash or wait till I receive it.
That stressed a little too, but what ever, if it was a fraud that's what I get for not taking precautions, I had to take a taxi to go home when the guy from Telmex was going to install my connection, and I didn't realize until later that I didn't have money for the bus for Friday and Saturday, I was thinking of asking my parents or Sergio, or someone else, anyone, more stress, lol, I asked my brother, I sent him a sms but he never replied, I waited till night to ask him in person, and when he got home he lend me some money, he saved my ass, lol.
Friday went like a normal day nothing there, except that my boss sent me an email that we were going to have a meeting at 1:30 on Saturday, and at that time my bed was supposed to arrive, I tried to contact the... contact from the manufacturer and asked if it could be delivered later that day, a few minutes later I got a reply saying that yeah, it was rescheduled for later.
On Saturday I had to be available to go home if the guy from Telmex called me before 1 pm, at that time my landlord was going to be in my house since her and her husband were repairing some things, so they could make sure the line was installed. Unfortunately I got the call at 12:00 pm, so I had to leave my job, I didn't even told my boss, just the receptionist, and I had to take a taxi or a bus, the first thing available. While I was there I called my landlord to check that the lock had been removed, I should have done that before, but I did it just at that moment, she told me that it had already been removed, but they put another one, and that her mom was at the house (she was cleaning the house), so she could attend the guy from Telmex, I went there anyway just to sign the papers that it had been installed, did that and got back to work, it took me like 35 minutes, luckily when I got there I noticed that my boss's car wasn't there. So probably he didn't notice.
When I got there I had to make a call to the guy who sold me his refrigerator, but I just noticed that I never disabled my internet connection that I used to get the names of the streets to tell the taxi to go. It used all my credit (or whatever it is called, lol), I asked if I could make a call to a cellphone from there but the phones from the office are only for land lines, I had to ask a friend there to lend me her phone, she did, and I called to confirm that I was going to buy it from him, and told him that I was going to be at 3:15 at my home, he already had the directions to it.
Later then I was at the meeting I told you, and it lasted a little longer than expected, till 3:00 pm, so when it finished I rushed to my home, when I arrived there my bed was already there, same as the modem (although it didn't have internet, I'll have to check that tomorrow), and the repairs were almost finished, I only had to wait for my refrigerator, a few minutes later the guy called me, that he was on his way but was trying to ask me for directions, I told him that I'm new here, so he was thinking how he could get here, luckily my landlord's husband knew pretty well the area, so I lend him my phone and gave him directions.
He got there and the refrigerator was actually bigger than I thought, it looked pretty well too. So we got it inside the house and I paid him, and that was everything for the day, my stress levels went to normal again. I laid some minutes in my bed, and after 3 months of sleeping in a couch it was glorious, but I had to go, I still had to go to watch a movie and to buy groceries and a hamburger so bad that it would kill me if I ate one each day, lol.
I went to the movies, saw Despicable Me 2, I liked it, then went to buy groceries, and got home at 9:30, then went for my hamburger, and laid while watching Doctor Who (the classic episodes) and chatting with my sister and a friend.
It was stressful, but in the end everything went fine, oh, and my landlord told me that it was the kid that put the lock, that he was trying to help them remove it and that he was a little scared, lol, that little devil, I'll have to keep an eye on him XD
And today I am all achy from my back and legs for everything I did.
