Reasons why I’m glad my roommate is home

  • fresh, objective material to use for justifying the frivolous purchase I made over the weekend
  • she can take pictures of me in the frivolous purchase I made over the weekend so I can send them to my mother
  • I don’t have to face up to the fact that I’m the only one who’s been drinking gallons of Diet Coke when I see all the cans in the recycling bin
  • someone to call out, “it’s on!” when Jon and Kate Plus Eight comes back from commercial
  • she’s not too scared to go tell the super that all the lightbulbs in our hallway are burned out
  • she missed me while she was away, too!

This is what I’ve been listening to this week (when I’ve turned off TLC)
