I went to my test this morning, and needless to say, I had a slight skip to my step as I walked back to my car afterwards. I'm so happy that's over, and I think I did pretty well too (which is a great, great way to finish a test).

After lunch, I was pretty worthless and made the most of my "relaxing day"... theeeen came the "duplex meeting" that Cameron and I had been planning for a while. Though our intentions were to plan out a rotation schedule for chores, we also had other plans. Cameron graciously volunteered to bring up some issues that we had been annoyed with... mostly pertaining to Liz. Ok, who am I kidding? They were all pertaining to Liz. Cameron basically approached her with some issues like respect, cleaning, loudness, etc. It was good that she got all these issues out in the open, so when she does them again, Gigi and I can stop it immediately. After Cameron was finished, I was going to add in a couple of comments, but Liz was given a chance to speak her mind before anyone else spoke. She simply said she'd take Cameron's comments into consideration, but said she had to eat and go to work (even though she was leaving 30 minutes earlier than she said she had to). She then went into her room, got her things for work, took her pan of food fresh from the oven, and left with her dinner.

I waited a while before I did this, but earlier I had decided to go up to Barnes and Noble to meet Liz for her break, so maybe she could talk to me about some of the things she was thinking. When I got there, all she said was, "I took my break 5 minutes before you got here, so I can't talk right now." She made eye contact maybe once, and after getting my coffee, I said I'd just see her at home. And now we have a relieved 3 roommates, and 1 really pissed one. The moral of this story is: don't wait to talk to your roommates until annoyances pile up.

Nuff said about this situation. It will sort out soon hopefully. Until the next blog...
