You're nice, and you're funny and you don't smoke, and okay, werewolf, but that's not all the time. I mean, three days out of the month, I'm not much fun to be around, either.

First-world rant of the day: I was late to work because my housemate was in the bathroom for 1/2 an hour this morning. Who does that when you live with someone else?

I know he had a doctor's appt this morning, but he knows I leave the house at 8:00 everyday (normally he is not awake). I waited until he had been there about 20 minutes thinking "he'll be out any second, right?" Then I heard him turn on the shower. Finally I was like, screw this. So I'm at work in my glasses with unbrushed teeth. Nice.

Hm, sometimes it's not by choice. Was he unwell?

edited to correct gender and to point out I'd skimmed the comment and I see that showering was involved, so, no, not so cool.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

You don't do that without saying, "I'm going to be in here a while. Do you need in here first?"

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

That sucks.

When I shower, I leave the bathroom door open so my roommate can use her litter box....

Exactly. The only time I might be in the bathroom that long is if I'm using a Lush bath bomb. And I always ask first.

He was not unwell. He's probably just used to having all the time in the world in the morning because I've already left. But yeah, so not cool.

My housemate is my husband, and we still ask if we're going to be in the bathroom for a while.

Though sometimes he will drive me insane by telling me he's about to take a shower and get ready for work, so I wait, and wait, and wait...and then it's like an hour later, I'm about to crawl out of my skin and he's finally headed to the bathroom.

I didn't know that volcanos could cause lightning storms. That's cool.

And makes me even happier that I don't live near a volcano.

But there are probably a lot of prospective super-villains who are even more excited by the thought of having a volcano for a lair....
