I hate roommates!
You know how you get mad at someone for something that isn't really their fault but then it escalates and by the end it most definitely is their fault? Well, that happened today.
I woke up early because I had to sign up for an audition before I came into work and I didn't want to be late for work. So, I got up a half an hour early. And, not to mention, I had to pee really bad. And my roommate who is subleting for a month was in the bathroom. Did I mention I had to pee really bad? I sat on the couch trying to suck it in when I suddenly realized he was going to be in there for awhile. I squirmed back and forth looking for a cup wondering if I should just go to the roof when finally I buried my head in my pillow trying to breathe through the pain.
Then all of a sudden my other roommate who's subleting for three months walks to the bathroom and opens the door on him. I couldn't believe it. Didn't he see me sitting there? I said, a little too loudly, "Nelson is in there! I have been waiting for 25 F'ing minutes!" At which point the 3 month roommate retreated to his room and Nelson exited the bathroom.
I enter. Determined to still sign up for my audition even though I now know I am late for work. I turn on the shower and whatd'ya know...HE USED ALL THE HOT WATER!!! He was in there that long. That's crap. You don't take a 30 minute shower during peak hours. I have to go to work. He's a freelancer.
It would be different if he was consistently in there when I needed to get ready for work but he's not. He just has bad timing. Whenever, I need to get in there he's in there for at least 30 minutes. Perhaps that's what I should discuss with him? Then again it hardly seems worth it since he's moving out in 10 days. I can't wait!
