On Comeuppence ( or however the hell you spell that word)

We are all worms, But, I do believe, I am a glowworm.

After a long day of applying for jobs yesterday I decided to take a little rec time and really enjoy being around my roommates. But, our dishwasher isn't working and it's been a little stressful for LRC who happens to be a real queen in the kitchen. I can say most certainly that LRC is the real man of the house. He really runs things. Once one of us has organized something he goes over it with a fine toothed comb and rearranges it in a much better, more efficient way. Don't get me wrong, I love this about him, but it does have a tendency to make the rest of us feel a little ridiculous.

He is master of his domain, I will say that and I appreciate that for sure. Yesterday he came home with this bathroom organizer which had no chance of fitting any where in our tiny bathroom. But he had already ripped it out of it's box and there was no chance of returning it to Target. I gave him a little bit of shit about that. Which was nice.

I've had my fair share of comeuppence when it comes to giving my dearest, darlingest LRC shit though. Since he, the skinniest man on earth, has decided to start working I took it in turns to call him Rocky and play the Eye of the Tiger every time he gets back from the gym. I think this is hysterical. But, ever since I got my Granny Smith he's decided to give me shit all over the place about because formerly I was a Mac hater and now that I've sold out he can't stop making references to me going to Starbuck's and writing with a Chai Tea and the rest of the Mac users.

I deserve it and appreciate it. I love it a little too, cuz I'm the only Granny Smith user at the 'ol homestead.

Maybe I do get a little sick satisfaction out of being a snob now.

Today I will finish, applying for retail jobs online and then sit down to watch a good tear jerker to unclog my head.
