Well, I haven't written a journal about my roommate in a while...what better time than TONIGHT. Saturday night, a night when I wouldn't normally even be here, except that I am. Letsee, I haven't even been back for 7 days...

You know what? I don't even know where to start. I feel like I have such a crazy long list of shit that it's almost unbelievable. I get back (day one) just, crap everywhere, dishes food, the place is freezing because the windows are open (it's January I might add) there are bizarre buckets and pots of water everywhere. For some reason the fridge is unplugged. God knows, I don't even bother to ask. What is the point, I wont get an answer that makes any sense or I will get a lie or I will get barked at in Spanish or I will get a guilt trip because I am Canadian and have it so much easier. I notice now that she has a phone and a stereo set up in the hallway. Great.

Next day I am almost ready for school, the breaker start tripping. Whats the point of fixing it, I've truly given up. I can hear her muttering out there in the hallway. She's playing dumb so someone will come to her rescue. Fuck it again, I locked my door and just left. I have to set my alarm clock on a daily basis cause it's on the circuit she is tripping all the time.

So by now I've realized I am dealing with a crazy person. I can't talk to her about anything because she will not listen and doesn't care. I close the windows and she goes and opens them within 3 minutes. I turn off the heat and she turns it back up to 30. The thermostat is in the hallway and since the windows are open the heat never shuts off making my room a pressure cooker. She wont listen/doesn't care. Yesterday I slammed a door in her face.

Today she was blasting Spanish music, snapping her fingers, dancing around, singing really loud, laughing, burping, making a RACKET with the pots and pans. I complained about her to the guy up stairs. He had already tried to tell her to turn down the music...she wouldn't. There are tons of other stories about shit she's done, the list goes ON and ON and ON. Anyway he flipped his lid, went downstairs, told her to shut the fucking music off and to close the goddamned door. Yes, now she has the whole door open not just the window and she is walking around with her winter coat on and boots. So he called his parents (they own the house) and they had to come and take her for the night because he was so mad he was going to call the police.

She always starts playing the guitar at about 11:30 every night, she asks the guy upstairs to give her potatoes, drive her everywhere, clean everything, dust her keyboard, she barfs all the time, she stinks for some reason, she is a mooch, she will knock on the door upstairs about 25 times a day even if it is 1 AM at night. if she is bored she bothers everyone, she never sleeps and she is always here. She has been in court all week because she is going though a divorce from some woman who I figure must also be nuts. Uh huh. Yes you read that right. How could anyone have been married to her, I don't know. She came from a battered women's shelter before she got here. .... .... ... .. . I would really like to say some majorly offensive shit about all this. I wont. I can honestly understand why someone would want to pound her face in. I've been standing in a room with her before and had one of those surreal moments where you almost see your own fist fly up and sink into someone's face, but it didn't actually happen. Like a really vivid and awesome daydream.

I have met some self centered, abrasive people before but this woman takes the prize. I have never in my whole 32 years of life met anyone who is so blatantly ignorant, self absorbed, willing to abuse and use people, stupid stupid stupid, nuts, lying, idiotic or self centered. Never, I swear to GOD, never. She has no clue either about how she acts. I honestly think she thinks she is entitled to have everything and anything she wants instantly and that it is the responsibility of everyone else around her to satisfy whatever ridiculous needs she has. I hate her. I HATE HER.

Also, I've only listed about 10% of the shit that has happened.

So tonight she is gone and I can sleep in past 7 am without earplugs in. God I hate the earplugs.

Anyway I'm going to bed to make the most of my free night.

Good lord, man... I don't know how you can put up with this bullshit without going absolutely insane! This is unacceptable right there. And for God's sake, if she's insists in blasting music, why not pick something with a little more rhythm than Spanish music? D: I used to live in a cal-de-sac in Buckeye, AZ that had neighbors that blared their Mariachi music on the weekends. Now, normally this would be no huge deal. However, during the Spring and Fall, it was actually cool enough outside during the morning and night to pop open the window in my room. I think you get the idea.

Anyway, do you have a cell phone? If so, why not set the alarm on that instead of relying on a big alarm clock? She can't disable the alarm on that by tripping the breakers.

I say you should break her stereo with a very large hammer, or better yet, pawn it off if its in good condition. Hit her where it hurts.

I can honestly say that I know how you feel. For a period of one and a half years, I was the roommate of a guy who thought the common areas were all his, played rap music that condoned rape and murder, ate my food, didn't do his part of the upkeep, talked trash like it was going out of style, left "debris" in the toilet, and literally, and I am NOT making this up, I swear, smelled like shit even right after he just showered; as well as cranking the AC to 75 in the winter as oppossed to wearing a sweater. He also threatened to beat the crap out of me when I asked him to take out that trash as he was supposed to do; ironic, given that fact he's a TOTAL glass jaw (a shrimpy guy once beat the crap out of him without getting a scratch). I managed to get him removed as a roommate (after a long series of complaints), a few months ago, where he now resides with another guy who has equally bad BO; I do not was to be the one to clean that apartment after they're gone.

Hey, looked at it this way, can the next person be as bad?

Wow, it really sounds like you had someone similar to what I have now. It's a really tricky situation to be in. It's your word against your roommates. That guy sounds like a huge waste of healthy organs. Since the last two people were so horrible I think they are going to start screening a bit more. I have no idea what will happen.

hmm... honestly sounds like you've got either a crazy(Like you said) Or a crackhead. You say she's mooching off everyone, bothering everyone, barfing all the time, ect. Ever notice her lock herself up for hours on end or go out for extended periods of time? Can she confirm she's at court when she's been out this week?

You know what is strange? Someone else said the exact same thing to me yesterday. They insisted that she must be high. I didn't give it much thought, but you if think so too than maybe I've just overlooked something. I'm going to really start paying attention to that...

I had a friend who lived in a bit of a boarding house, and while he was there, one of the tenants was annoying as shit. He was acting about how like your person is acting, and later on they found him dead in his room, OD'd on what the police said were pain pills. As the landlord was cleaning out the room, he said he found a quarter bag of weed, a bottle of loritab pills, and a bag of powder. He turned it over to the cops and they confirmed that the bag was a cheaper street-form of crack. :/ Sad part was, the value of all of it together was less than 40 bucks, so if your buddy across the hall is mooching from everyone so desperately, I'd suggest keeping a close eye on her. Remember the signs, shakes, paranoia, barely eating, hot/cold flashes left and right (Might be why she's leaving your windows up), and of course the vomiting.

I'm sorry this new roomie isn't working out. Hopefully the landlord will get her out of your hair soon enough, and then I hope you have a stroke of luck and get an awesome roomie.

wow, that's terrible, no one should be put though that kinda shit, especially when you got school stuff to do. She's obviously making everyone else's life shitty and it's in everyone's interest to kick her out, jeez. Sorry to hear you're having so bad luck when it comes to roommates, hopefully you'll get a NORMAL person to replace this she-demon if she gets kicked. OR you could move here and wouldn't have to pay for your studies and the government would help you with your rent too! :D
