There has been a tad bit of drama in my world as of late. And if you know me at all, you know that I do not enjoy drama. In fact, I tend to run from it and avoid anyone/anything who loves it.
This situation could have turned even more dramatic but I chose to accept it (because I could do nothing to change it) and walked away. I'm still angry about how it all went down, but I will spare you the details.
What I will tell you is that my roommate moved out.
Am I sad about this? Not really.
Was I dependent upon her for income, favors, chores, etc.? Not really.
Did I forget how fabulous it is to live alone? ABSOLUTELY!
In celebration of this revisited revelation, I am making a list! (You know I love me some lists.)
What I love about living alone:
- Being able to walk around naked. Don't lie - you do it too.
- Laughing aloud at stupid stuff/yelling at the TV... and feeling no shame. I mean, college football and basketball seasons are right around the corner!
- Not worrying that someone is going to break my grandmother's china or throw my dedicates into the dryer when they really need to be line dried.
- Knowing that my dog will only get fed when I feed her.
- Knowing that everything will still be exactly where I left it. Or be moved to wherever Luna chose to move it. (Same difference.)
[cue sigh of relief]
In other news, it has been raining like the dickens in southeastern NC - and I am about over that mess! My gardenia bush, however, has celebrated by gifting me with its first bloom :)
