Roommate Issues

Issue 1: I have three roommates
Issue 2: They like it HOT in the apartment
Issue 3: One is a slob and smokes pot in her room (I have asked her to stop...didn't work)

I am fed up with all the issues but I snapped on issue 3. I grabbed up all the dishes that she left in the sink, put them in a trash bag and left them at her door. Then I wrote a note stating that I am sick of her slovenly ways that she needs to start cleaning up after herself.

I come home and the kitchen is clean and she is cleaning the bathroom! Nice! But then she leaves a note on my door:
"Thy bidding is done and your people skills are appalling."

I write in response:
"Pot smoke is appalling
Loogies are appalling (she spits them into the sink and shower that she never cleaned)
Dirty dishes in the sink for weeks is appalling.

Your ass is lucky that I didn't call the police on you for smoking (pot). Your attitude sucks and I have been way nicer to you than you deserve.

Keep up the good job with cleaning up after yourself."

I have had it with her. I have been way too nice. I have provided her with dishes, driven her to the store, fed her and have cleaned up after her for months now. I haven't called the police on the four separate occasions that I have had to endure her stinky pot smoking. I have listened to her cough up whatever is living in her lungs since I moved in here.

She's 22, thinks she's always right so its not surprising that she acts this way. I think I hate her.




I am knitting though! Check out my Ravelry page if your can my username is cherbear01!!!

First Day of School

I just found out this morning that my baby Missy has been sleeping in my bed back home. And I was thinking that she didn't even miss me. This makes the first day of school bittersweet.

Missy and the Yarn Monster


Here's to you Missy a great dog that never attacked my yarn even though it was always in your face!

I'm HERE!

Well I am here in beautiful (rainy) State College. Classes officially start on Monday the 27th and I am already stressed. Hearing what you have to accomplish in 5 years all at once really gets the heart pumping. Now my commitment to my education is really being put to the test and I am freaking out. For the past few days I have been working on my other Embossed Leaves Sock but now I can't even look at it!!! Grrrrrrr how long will this last? How long will this anxiety over my new situation in life last?

I don't know when I will next post about yarn or knitting. I hope it will be soon because all my yarn is up here with me and it winks at me when I walk by.

Moving

Tomorrow I move to school. A great day because I have been wanting a PhD since I was in highschool and now 10 years after graduating high school I am finally starting on my way to that dream.
I meant to post my finished Monkey Socks but I have discovered that I am not as familiar with my new computer as I would like to be. I got a MacPro and its silver and go-geous !!! Even though I have always been a PC person there were a few Mac's that I had to use at my previous job so making the switch hasn't been difficult at all until I have to learn the various applications like iPhoto and iMovie and iThis and iThat but in time it will become second nature.
I am almost finished with packing (I packed all my yarn first Hee!) so I better get back to what is left over.
Next time I post I will be an official student and not a jobless bum!!

SOLD!

BEAUTIFUL!
If I had known that Anne was going to put out a retangular version of her Bee Fields Shawl I would not have purchased the kit for the shawl. Don't get me wrong, I WANT THE SHAWL, but now I will feel guilty if I start the stole while my shawl kit is just sitting there! Of course I will be very busy with school and won't have time for either :( ...damn school.
Oh and I am TOTALLY knitting the stole in black JaggerSpun zephyr laceweight as shown...I'm all about black right now.
