well it's 2am on a Saturday. Why am i up? well once again one of my roommates has drunk people over. And by "once again" i mean this the same roommate that invited those strangers to sleep on our couch a couple weeks ago. Now, if i was going to Red Deer tomorrow i definately would not be impressed by the partying, however i'm not going there tomorrow so i mean it's not like i have an extensive schedule to fulfill tomorrow, i was just kinda hoping for a relaxing weekend in Calgary. But no.
The latter part of my evening consisted of watching "Secret of Nimh", talking to Scott on the phone and reading "Two Towers" for an hour. During my free reading, my roommate and her friends were in our living room ordering pizza and being drunk. And since there were kinda loud it was kinda hard not to eavesdrop while reading. They also had loud music playing in the room next to mine. And since i was eavesdropping i heard my roommate explain to her friends where our other roommates and I were this evening. She told them i was sleeping. Which if you think about it, if she knew I was sleep, why would she be really loud with her friends and crank her music which is beside my room? Why? because drunk people are stupid like that!! The music was pentrating my brain (now this was when i finished reading and was attempting to fall asleep) so much that i had to intervene and i asked her nicely to turn it down, and she did. So i appreciated that.
So what is the purpose of getting drunk? To forget your problems? To loose so much control of yourself that you dont' care how much of a fool you make of yourself? I've never been drunk and dont' ever plan to be, so i personally can't answer these questions. Mt thoughts...I dont' want to loose control of myself through alcohol. I just think it's stupid. Pathetic. I find no pleasure in being around drunk people, their actions are repulsive to me. Yes i do drink, however i DO NOT drink to get drunk. I drink because i know the people that i'm with will call me on it if i drink too much. I at least do it with poeple that i trust in that sense.
And besides, drinks are expensive! Two drinks is about what...$10? And pop is like $2? Somewhere in there? Now which do you think is more cost effective, DUH! The pop! It's not rocket science people! And if you really want to be cheap...go with water.
And while i'm on the subject of roommate frustrations, washing dishes is a concern for me. I really want to avoid having another Dishwasher of Death experience again. been there, done that once too many times. Yet everytime i hint to my roommates to wash their dish pile that's growing in the sink, they claim it'll get done "later". "Later" comes and they are still not clean until a few days after "later". I'm not impressed. I mean i can kinda forgive them for it because they just got out of high school and haven't had much time living in the real world and living on their own, but really. Other than that....grow up children! Now if you're wondering if I wash my dishes, yes i do. My parents raised me to be clean. And when i get married and have a family of my own, i plan on being impecably clean as in Lysol disinfectant sprays and all that fun stuff. No, i am not a germaphobe, i just like a clean living space. No one wants to look at the soup rings on the inside of your pot, so just clean it. Bah!
There. Now i feel a little bit better now that i ranted about my roommates. And i have a feeling there's going to be more rants on the roommate subject. I'm sure of it. Now i just have to preoccupy myself with something until my tiredness takes over...
