What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Minnesota

So here's the deal. I gave my 60 day notice to vacate in a timely fashion. I later changed my mind and gave them another notice that said I want to stay and sign a new lease.

Now, I have changed my mind once again (long long story) and want to get out of my lease.

Here's the thing - The 2nd notice I sent them about disregarding my 60 day notice, I didn't sign it, it doesn't have any signature on it at all. I printed it out and forgot to sign, and they also never asked me to sign it.

Would this mean that it's not valid, and I can stick with the original plan to vacate with no legal consequences? I never did sign a new lease either.

I hope this makes sense...

**A: on what date does your lease expire?

Why not give three more notices, each contrary to one another? Perhaps then the landlord will just tell you to get out.

I am totally baffled why this is considered to be a consufing situation. All I'm wondering is if an unsigned notice has any validity. Sheesh...You have no idea what my life situation is like right now. I don't need this kind of crap, when all I'm looking for is a straight answer!
