She's making you feed her crazy. DON'T FEED THE CRAZY. It's your house. She's subletting from you and this is not your failure
Sox is so, so right. You didn't do anything, she is being unreasonable and a bad roommate.
This is so nice. Having everyone together for my birthday. Of course, you could smash in all my toes with a hammer and it will still be the bestest Buffy Birthday Bash in a big long while.

Spike's Bitches 46: Don't I get a cookie?
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Thanks, y'all. She is actually on the lease, though I was here first, so it's not really a sublet. But I can't deal with this for another three months! IDEK.

you decided to play Queen at top volume and dance around the kitchen in your team USA hardhat?
I want to sign up for this dance party.

Yes, it would be more assertive to just talk to her, but I don't have the spoons for an argument.
I doubt it will be an argument, since she doesn't want to communicate. I think emailing and texting is just feeding into her antisocial pity party. Go in the kitchen when she's in there and ask her point blank WTF? I think it's fair for you to say how what she's doing makes you feel.
I am not a confrontational person at all, even.

“Not dead yet!”
The email should read "I don't think this is working out - I'd like to open this space up again. Please be on your way crazy girl and stop making me second guess my fabulous self."
What Sox said, except the end of this should read, "Please be on your way crazy girl or my blinvisible friends will show up and give you what for because they don't like me second guessing my fabulous self."
I mean, seriously, do it in whatever manner is best for your peace of mind, but definitely, for your overall peace of mind, you need to get that craxy beeyotch out.

ION, I totally made an awesome pantry/fridge meal tonight. Was feeling lazy and didn't want to do anything too strenuous, so took a package of Bear Creek creamy wild rice soup (love the Bear Creek soups), sautéed mushrooms, garlic, a can of diced roasted tomatoes, a couple of packages of grilled chicken, and a poblano pepper that I blistered over the burner and diced. Added lots of different southwestern spices, threw it in the soup and simmered for ten minutes. Served it with a dollop of Mexican sour cream, some shredded cheese, and tortilla chips on the side and called it NOM.

smonster, it's so sucky that roommate turned out to be Whacko (TM). Everything else about NOLA has been so good for you.
Barb, that sounds DELICIOUS. Now to come to my house and make, please. And what's Mexican sour cream?

It was sooooo kicky good, Amy! And Mexican sour cream is to regular sour cream as Greek yogurt is to regular yogurt. Slightly thicker consistency, a little bit richer flavor overall. So, so good!

Trust my rage
Is Mexican sour cream different then crema? Because I don't think I've ever had anything called "sour cream" and now I'm curious.

Ooh, god, that sounds good.
