I have to admit that I saw this coming from a mile away. EVERYONE told me that this would happen.
I thought that since things had been okay so far that maybe they would continue to be okay until the end.
This is all referring to my living situation. One of the individuals living with me is unable to pay rent or electricity. I don't know if she is going to be able to pay her portion of the water bill either.
So, now what? Do I call the landlord or the water company or the electricity company and tell them all that we cannot pay on time this month? Should that be MY job? Why am I the one who has to step up?
I have a headache. I slept too long this afternoon.
Why does this have to happen now? Right before finals week? Why didn't I prepare better for this?
I knew that she didn't have a steady job that was bringing in any significant income. Why didn't I just talk to her about it? It's uncomfortable. WHY!!
I don't want to think about it. I have a simulation on common pipistrelle bats figure out.
Not to mention a bison culling simulation to run and write a report on.
Then there is the paper on vulgar humor. And the studying for my last fish test which I have to get a 70% or better on this time in order to get a C for the semester.
And yet, here I am feeling sorry for myself because I didn't listen to my instincts and all my friends and family concerning this roommate situation.
Sorry I didn't listen to you all.
I am unhappy.
On the plus side, Elder Bednar gave a good talk. I don't think that blogging takes me away from the spirit. Often it invites it. Not if I am writing bad things about people.
So I will do my best to be charitable towards this roommate. Try to help her as much as I am able.
I wish that my headache would go away.
The place where I go to find myself again when I am lost. My Zen garden if you will.

It WAS a good talk. Very profound and meaningful. Very well-handled. I got a lot out of it.
I'm sorry that roommates sometimes suck in various ways. Financial frustration is a big issue, and I'm sorry it seems to be landing squarely on your shoulders. Pray for guidance. Pray to know the best course to take. Pray to be able to communicate with your roommates with the Spirit.
In the meantime, I will also pray for you.
Good luck on your projects/finals/etc.!
Love you!
Hey Chucklespit- call me tonight or tomorrow sometime. We'll talk.
