Morning, all! Just read through all the posts. I didn't come into the temp job yesterday -- had a mild depression/period/ARGH day, but am much better now.
meara! -- Will you be in KC for sure?! When? Let me know -- we'll get together!
Hair: I shower about every other day. Unless I exercise or ger really gross. And I like my hair better on the second day, but by the third, it's a lank, greasy hairloaf.
YEAH to the homeowners and birthday-havers!
Egad, Lilty. Can roommate be guilt-tripped, at least into looking for a replacement roommate while you're gone?
That sucks Lilty. Seems like since she put you in a pickle, she could pay 1/3 or 1/4th the rent or something.
{{Lilty}} That's really unfortunate timing. But I'm kind of glad you dodn't know this before you decided to go to Europe, because you might have decided not to, and I really think this trip is going to be wonderful for you.
Well, she said she'd pay half of August's cable.
I know she feels really bad for all of this, so I'm trying not to fall apart when she tells me this stuff (especially before my coffee). But I've discovered that telling me that I need to find another $400, when I've come straight off a vacation, and that you are going to start selling off the furniture soon before I'm caffeinated will come remarkably close to bringing me to tears.
Can you move out before you go to Europe? Or move out a bunch of stuff before hand and finish moving after you get back? That way neither of you are stuck with living there in August.
That's what I would do, even though it SUX.

Please. She should feel bad. What she is doing sucks.
She'll pay half of the cable? I'm sorry, but I'm getting really angry on your behalf. I don't care how nice she is. She's being inconsiderate. Want me to have a little chat with her? ;)

It's what I would try, too. Even though, yes, it blows dead goats.
I think she's not being fair to you, given that she knows her moving out is behind your moving out, and if you'd known about her plans, you might not have booked the Europe trip. I still think you should stick up for yourself, but can understand your reluctance, so...

Yeah. That's then 2nd thing I would do. You're going to be packing, anyhow. Pack it all up in July, and when you get back from Europe, you just have to get it out.
