A Question on Tuesday

Do you ever have things that you want to post, and kind of need to post to see what other people out there think but at the same time are hesitant to post because doing so could totally bite you in the ass later on?

That is kind of where I am at today.

We had a great weekend with my Mom and the visiting and the good food and the hanging out with someone who is not our bitchy moody roommate.  I even managed to have a great day yesterday because I had the place to myself for a while.  The roommate being gone-ness, though…. that might come to an end soon.  He might be back tonight.  I do not know.  We are waiting to receive word from….the place he went on Thursday night.  (Thursday? Was all sorts of full of dramarama)

Because we are torn on whether or not to even have the roommate back, we were advised to come up with a set of rules that the roommate would have to agree to before being invited back and that we could use to kick him out in the future.  Guess who got to do that today while she was working out quotes for projects with clients?  I guess it is only fair because Will wants so badly to be nice and supportive even though he is so frustrated with all of this that not even killing thousands of zombies in whatever video game he just downloaded can make him feel better.  For the record, I didn’t want to come up with a list at all, I just wanted to be “okay, you’re done.  Here’s your computer.  Bye.”  But I did my best not to make the list to crazy specific.  Seriously?  It took some serious restraint not to include a rule about how roommate is not allowed to think or speak or breathe while in my presence.  And even so? The list, just the basic sort of considerations that any normal person would understand but for some reason we have to spell out? Is three pages long.

I think there is something wrong with me. Apparently brevity is not my source of wit.

Anyway, when Will gets home he is going to look over the list to make sure that I didn’t include a “if your hair is messy you have to go” clause and together we’ll come up with something that we can both live with.

Honestly though–how is all of this still going on?  Please universe, I would like to get back to my boring old life wherein the only drama I encountered was contained within the pretty silver box on my television stand.

In other news, tomorrow I will be posting the Blog Share post!  I got it today and it is goooood.  I have no idea who wrote it, but I think you’ll like it!

Ooh drama! I think I’d be in your boat saying take your computer and never come back. Will, so diplomatic. I guess a list is 2nd best :)

Here’s to hopin it works!

If I were in your situation, I think that take a bath would be on my list. My fiance had a friend over the other day… I know I don’t live there yet, but I was there… and the friend got close to me.. well he stank!! not just stink. STANK! lol
I told D later that if the friend was going to come over… or stay the night… he had to bathe!
Hope the list works… hope you can share some of the rules too ;)
