I had a mildly interesting day today (at least it was interesting to me anyways). I was kicking back, enjoying a nice cup of Earl Grey tea when my boyfriend runs into the room.
Him - "Uh, honey, we gotta clean the appartment"
Me - "Duh, I've been saying that for a while now"
Him - "No, you don't understand, the landlord wants to come up.... He thinks we are growing pot up here"
Me - too stunned to speak or move
Him - "You okay?"
Me - too stunned to speak or move, again
Apparently the co-owner of the building (who comes around about once a year) came by the other day to see another unit that is being renovated. My boyfriend has an office in our home and works nights in the entertainment industry so he spends a great deal of time here. I have been on medical leave from work for almost a year now so I am at home everyday that I don't spend in the hospital. So being a genius, the co-owner thought that we clearly didn't have any real jobs & therefore must be selling drugs to be able to pay our ways through life. Yeah, between my perscription costs & his child support we really do live the high life (no pun intended). What a fucktard.
To make a long story short we had the landlord do a quick runthrough of the place to prove that we were not growing any illegal substances. Now the meth lab on the other hand.......

I don't grow or cook anything but I do smoke up a lot... Doctor approved me to toke up since one of the things wrong with me is constant nausea & vomiting. Pot helps with this quite a bit as well as keeps me somewhat mellow for the times that I do blow chunks.
The clean up was just because I am naturally a very messy person & I didn't want him to freak out over the state of the appartment or anything, that & to hide any smokie smoke products that were laying about.

Is it really that bad if a landlord can visit his own property?

while theres a tenant in there, they should leave them the fuck alone unless they need to make urgant repairs or maintenance etc.
by leasing to a tenant, you are effectively giving away the ownership of the flat for the period stated.

It all depends on the lease. Here, it is almost certainly included that a landlord can make visits for any reason because their property can be seized if someone is dealing out of it. War on drugs and terrorism and all that. Gotta be vigilant and make sure that the people who are on your property are on the up and up.
I'm willing to bet that if you read the fine rprint on your lease, you'll see that the landlord has unrestricted visitation. And if your lease is up, they can boot ya for no reason. Including refusing to show that nothing illegal is going on.

Fortunately for me, my landlord smokes just as much dope as I do.

So if you aren't actually growing any illegal substances in your apartment, why did you have to clean it up? Fuck being courteous to your over-curious landlord.

Meh.
Could have been more interesting.
This story reminds me of those tests I used to take to gauge my ADD when there were two people saying different things in different ears of the headphones. This is like one of those stories they'd play, short with some complexity, but not of interest to me.
