We have 11 weeks left in the apartment, and I have a deep sense of relief when I think of a few things I'm not going to miss:
- The dishwasher that, despite all the cleaning, jet dry, and disposal running, still doesn't get our glasses clean
- The toilets that don't flush unless we stand there and hold the lever down for 3-1/2 minutes
- The fridge and freezer that are too small to fit a cake pan in
- The dryer that leaves all of our clothes wrinkled even if I take them out the second the dryer turns off (Yes, I'm complaining about the appliances)
- Tile floors. South Florida has covered every single surface with either astro-turf or tile. I hate grout. I hate cleaning it. I hate how black and gross it looks five seconds after I clean it.
- Locked doors and gates every 12 feet.
- Asking permission to get my bike out of storage when I want to go for a ride.
- Loud neighbors and loud music
- City driving
- The heat, the perma-slime of constant sunscreen application, sweating every second of the day
