Cold Room @ MindSay

I was sleeping last night, when I heard a knocking on my bedroom door just after 2am.  I sat up and said, "come in", which MIGHT be foolish 'cause I couldn't see who it was, but I justified it by saying, "the killer never knocks; roommates do".  I figured it was Aaron telling me our toilet was re-broken, but even that was a little sketch because he's literate and could leave a note on it to say 'hey, don't use me, I SUCK'.

It was Ann, the woman who lives in one of the rooms upstairs.  Ann and I have been the 2 complaining most about being cold; the boys have mentioned it infrequently, but Carman especially seems the most apathetic to our plight.  To be fair, I'm ALWAYS cold, so even I don't hold my complaints of being chilly with a lot of merit, because I say it when it's 89 degrees out and I'm running around.

So Ann comes in, and I turn on the light to make sure she's okay, like not sick and needing me to drive her to the hospital or anything.  No, no:  she's coming in because she's complaining about the heat situation.  She's up in her room 'curled up in a little ball' and it's too cold, she's really upset, etc.  And I'M really upset it says '68' on the wall thing but it's probably only 50 because it's clearly not working, but it's also... 2am.  She admitted she knew it wasn't my fault, and she knows I'm not mechanical and don't know how to fix it myself, and she 'doesn't want to fly off the roof' (which I guess is her version of 'get really pissed and overreact'), but it still seemed weird to come into my room at 2am to tell me this.

Meanwhile, I just bought a blanket/comforter that is still in its bag (wanted to save it for extra layer in winter months), so I get out of bed and get it out for her, thinking she could use an extra blanket to help her sleep for tonight when I can't fix it.  "Oh, no, I'm okay under the covers, it's just... I need to be able to spend time in my room".  Whaaaaaaaaaaaaa?

Am I wrong for thinking that this exchange, while not the worst thing in my life (She left at about 2:10 and I was back asleep by 2:40), was incredibly weird?  And maybe...not the way to handle it?  I think it's great that Ann, who is pretty shy/reserved, feels close enough to me to come to me with her problems, but at the same time... tomorrow night when I'm home from teaching is a great time.  Hell, get up an hour early this morning when I'm already up.  But this...just seemed excessive.

today has been a really relaxing day. after church we went out to eat, then i came home, violated the piano until i couldnt distinguish one note from the other, then i collapsed on my bed for an hour or so.

oscar woke me up by barging into my room telling me to keep my eyes closed because he was turning on the light (ooo... yeah, wouldnt want to disturb the sacred ritual of .....The Light).

he wanted me to tell my mother to let him watch Goldmember. i refused, and he started touching all  my stuff, as only little brothers know how. hehehehehe.. they can be funny sometimes.....

last night my mother gave me an intense back massage. in, fact, it was so intense that if anyone touches my spine and lumbar regions i am going to do some severe damage to them, because it hurts like a bitch. it was relaxing though.

yeah. its so nice not having to worry about schoolwork. my mother seems to want to have a movie night tonight, so im thinking about making popcorn and either joining them, or lying on my living room floor listening to some orgasmic music until i fall asleep. or i could always go for a walk outside. that might be fun. but cold. it would be very cold. and one never knows what sick twisted raper freaks like to walk around my neighbourhood at night......yes, getting raped is not on my agenda for the near future, thats for sure..... hmm....

hahahaha, as someone (i cant remember who) always says, "you cant rape the willing".... hahahaha... ok, bad joke.....

so, i talked to Temoc today. its really weird. like, i guess we went out 2 years ago, but i cant only vaguely remember when and where...... hahaha, i really know how to choose them.... hes in 8th grade... so lets see.... he would be 13/14 right about now...... definitely my youngest yet... hahahahaha... i sound like a child molester...

lets see.... matt turned 16 last month, nathan turns 16 in septmember, drew turned 15 yesterday, i turn 17 in november...... do the math on that one.....

 

hmmm... i just spoke with emily. she broke up with jess, who it turns out was cheating on her with a 24yr old guy. i feel really bad....

the light's are on, but no one's home
in a room full of people, you're all alone
you feel so cold standing by a blaze
and crystal clear pictures can't be seen through the haze

anyone want to add on to what i've already got? anything you want, but it's got to rhyme!at least a little?...please?

My dad is so nice, he's in the hospital but he is making sure i have a birthday party. How sweet. Anyways i didn't get up today until like 4pm. Thats a whole day i wasted. Oh well. I hope tonight will be fun, funner than me sleeping all day. It felt good though. Geez it is like 20 degrees in my house my fingers are like ice. Im freezing to death. Well i think i gotta call this morning to go somewhere with someone but i dont remember who or where. I have like amnesia or something. Its pretty crazy. I gotta go straighten my hair but i will blog again tonight. Tata!
