Adult Children
So I had am amazing day today. I just got a new camera and I went and did some shooting this morning. Then I went for an awesome bike ride. I went back out to do some shooting with my friend and filmed some buffalo. Then got some chinese and watched Munich. Which was an amazing movie and left me feeling totally inspired to write and do some work. I make my way home by 11:00 pm. I open my bedroom door, and there in my bed is an empty box of Wheat Thins, an empty container of Humus, and a partially eaten bowl of dog food!
My fucking goddamn stupid ass Adult Child of a roommate put these objects in my fucking bed! And not even on top of the covers or anything, their where on the SHEETS!! Now I'm allready anal retentive about my bed, as far as cleanliness goes. But I've been having issues with personal space as all the space I have in the whole entire world consists of a bedroom that is 10 feet by 11 feet, that I share with my dog, and my editing system! So not only did I have garbage and dog food in my bed, but I had my personal space violated. I'm so fucking pissed right now!
Tomorrow morning I am having a talk with her. This is complete bullshit! I'm going to tell her that she has crossed a line with me, that under no circumstances can I ever understand that it would be ok to leave garbage in anyone's bed. And in addition that she has no possession in my room, and that I would appreciate it if she allowed me some privacy!

Follow Up: So I spoke with my roomate the next day. I confronted her, but in a, "You know I understand i shouldn't have left the wheat thins on the coffee table, but in the future if you could not put them in my bed. I'm a bit anal about my sleeping area" kind of way. I also addressed the dog food in the same manner. Her response was that she was tripping over the dog food. And I said ok, now I must tell you that the dog food has occupied the same spot on the floor for the previous 8 months without incident.
So after she said she was tripping on it, I asked her about the wheat thins (again) and she kept responding that she was tripping over it. And I'm serious too! It was like bad sci-fi movie where the robot breaks and reiterates the same phrase over and over again, and everyoen finds out it's a robot and not a human. Though that would at least have been gratifying, and would have explained the situation. About a month or two after this incident I was talking to my roomate who was a bottle deep into her night two wine bottle habit, when she started to tell me about people in town who trade sex for rent. Now this is my landlord, who's 40 (not that that matters), talking to me while she's drunk about trading sex for rent. And at the end of her statement she kind of smiles at me, and shrugs her shoulders. I said goodnight and went to bed. I should have taken her picture at that moment to share with you.
