### QOTW

Thanks, everyone, for answering! I really like the QOTWs. I was looking back at a few recently, and I really enjoy them.
So, this week's QOTW is more of a chance to rant for me than anything else: What was your LEAST favorite place that you have lived and why?
I think that mine, unfortunately, is where we live right now. I mean, before Tyler and I got married, I lived in Campus Plaza, with 3 roommates per bedroom and only one bathroom. That wasn't great, but this place is definitely worse. On first glance, you wouldn't think it was so bad. The kitchen is wonderfully large, the bedrooms are decently sized and there's a HUGE storage closet in the back. Rents not bad, although we do have to pay our utilities on top of it, and we have a big backyard. That's why we took this place. We moved in, and then the troubles started.
Since we have lived here, we have dealt with leaky faucets in the bathroom sink, the shower head, and the kitchen sink, not to mention the constant leak coming from under the toilet. Then there's the power outages, as the house was wired really weird, so anytime we run our spacve heater, half the house loses power. But we had to run our space heater because the heater in the house didn't work...it wouldn't turn on until it was about 50 degrees in our house. Our oven quit working for about a week before they finally came to fix it. And that's not even counting the fact that we've had a spider infestation, mice in our vents, and of course the raccoon family that lives in the bush right outside the front door. Add to this a cheap landlord who always goes for the quick fix instead of taking care of the real problem. So, yeah...after our lease is up this summer, we're moving again. *sigh* I hate moving! But I would rather deal with the annoyance of that than live here one day longer than we have to.
