Frankly They’re Freeloaders

breathe in…. breathe out….
breathe in…. breathe out…

Ok so Sam tells me he has a good friend of his staying, with her husband …at our house. He didn’t ask if this was ok (as per usual), I was just told. He did however say they’d sleep in his room and he’d sleep in the lounge room… aaah hello?? What difference does that make??? Someone would still be sleeping in the lounge room, making it out of bounds for me!
I sucked that up thinking they’d only be staying the weekend… But boy oh boy…. I was WRONG!
They didnt stay 2, 3 or 4 days…. they stayed 7 DAYS! And the most insane part…. they stayed in the house for 98% of the time (that is not an exaggeration!), the 3 of them in the lounge room, with the door closed all day and night watching TV! Firstly who goes interstate and stays at someones house all day watching tv? And secondly, what if I actually wanted to use the tv myself?? Argh… and then there’s the bills – I’m effectively paying for them to live at my house?? Hmmm… seems fair…NOT!
Sam is oficially a selfish idiot and they are freeloaders…
Some people honeslty have no idea about manners!
At the very least they could have given me a box of chocolates LOL!

lets see if anything has changed since 2007:

1: when your male housemate takes your clothes out of the washing machine to put his in and puts all your clothes into the clothes dryer as he just assumes everything can go in the dryer when it can’t! Recipe for disaster!

2: when your housemates use your brand new Tefal frypan and scratch the s*#t out of it!

3: when your housemate gets up early on a Sunday morning and proceeds to talk on the phone at full volume right outside your bedroom door.

4: when your housemate TELLS you people are coming to stay for a while, they don’t ask if it’s ok.. Or they say so and so is coming from this date to this date… i hope that’s ok! Like i have a choice!

5: when your housemate uses kitchen scissors I bought for cutting things in the bathroom, probably his hair… god knows!

I shudder when i think about it.. yes it’s Sam again… Up to his old tricks… For some reason Sam thinks its totally acceptable to cut his fingernails and toenails outside the front door. We have an undercover section with seats outside our front door, where people sometimes sit. Sam goes outside, sits on the chair and cuts his fingernails and toenails and just leaves them there all over the ground! Ewww, on numerous occasions I have gone outside only to greeted by his offcuts. It really makes me sick! And he just went outside and did it! argh!!!

Utorrent…. the bain of my existence….
Good old Sam is up to his tricks again… this time i find out he has been downloading copious amounts of movies and god knows what else using good old Utorrent! 8 Days into our new cap i find our internet connection to be slow so i call up our internet service provider and what do they tell me??? That we are over our cap!!! 8 days after it started..so we have to endure dial-up speed ’til next month! Stupid Sam didn’t know about uploading.. it turns out not only had he been downloading, people had been uploading heaps from his computer as he left Utorrent open! Arghh.. don’t even start me!

Words really can’t explain!

This morning we found out that we have an rental inspection tomorrow. Luckily i snooped at a letter on the kitchen bench and saw the notice from the agent, as nobody else had read it. So tonight we all get home from work, and as per usual Sam is sitting at the computer typing like a madman. Meg and i start cleaning, Sam doesnt budge from the computer. Meg then asks Sam if he could wipe the surfaces in the bathroom. Sams Response: “i cleaned recently” and he stayed glued to the computer. I then stated that I too had done a clean recently and that it wasnt my turn but that wasnt stopping me lending a hand. I actually stupidly thought he would then get up and help, but no….

this fell on deaf ears….

He stayed at the computer for a bit longer as we cleaned around him (literally!!), he then went to his room, got changed and then went out for the evening.

I honestly dont know why his selfishness continues to surprise me.. but it honestly does!

For example last weekend i mentioned that the kitchen floor was a feral mess as it hadnt been cleaned since i last did it. (god knows why i needed to mention it as it was blatantly obvious) A day or so later he moved the mop and bucket inside, and then they sat in the kitchen for about 4 days, and then were moved outside again… no mopping involved!

Sam is fast becoming my pet hate!

 

I just got home from work and sat down at the computer, enjoying the fact i have nothing to complain about… haha that didn’t last long. A minute after I sat down, In comes Sam and his 5 year old niece. She then starts bouncing a ball around me as i sit at the computer and then Sam says “Milly is staying tonight”. Not.. “Do you mind if Milly stays tonight?” which is what you’d expect in a share accommodation situation. Sam also recently asked me if his friend, her husband and their 2 young kids could stay for a week… in our small 3 bedroom house with a tiny loungeroom (and they’d sleep in the lounge room). Honestly, i cant believe he’d even ask.. what a nightmare!

 1- Housemate and her boyfriend kissing and baby-talking in the lounge room when i’m sitting right next to them.. oh god i hate it!

2- People leaving their dishes above the dishwasher, and not in it!

3- People over loading the rubbish bin to the point where its flowing onto the floor, rather than emptying it when they notice its full.

4- People having friends over to stay on our sofa bed in the lounge room for days at a time, so i cant access the lounge room, tv or computer while they sleep in half the day.

5- People cutting their toe nails outside the front door (guess i should be grateful he went outside).

6- People using my milk every day, but for some reason refuse to admit they use milk, even though i see them having it with their cereal.

7- People not replacing the washing detergent, or toilet paper, or anything come to think of it!

8- People who don’t mop the kitchen floor when its their turn to clean the house, when i do it!

9- People who hog the computer and type ultra loudly when they use it (i’m not being petty, it’s insanely loud).

10- People who talk full volume on their mobile in the lounge room, when other people are trying to watch something on tv.

I really think i should be living alone!

Afterall.. if i wanted to live in my own personal Big Brother house I would have auditioned for Big Brother!

I tidied the kitchen/house yesterday and today i woke up in my own personal nightmare! There were glasses EVERYWHERE, empty champagne bottles in random places throughout the house, food wrappers, dirty dishes.. the list could go on and on..

i have one question…. WHY CAN’T PEOPLE WASH DISHES AS THEY USE THEM?

Especially since Sam broke our dishwasher by using big square plates in it, which broke the water sprayer thing off. It seems odd that dishes always seem to make it to the sink, but never any further. And if by some miracle they do manage to get washed, they get stacked on the dish drainer and keep getting piled and piled up higher on top of each other until I put then all away.

You’d think living in a share house would mean ’sharing’ some of the responsibilities. Maybe we need Big Brother to come in and set allocated chores for my housemates and ensure they get punished if they dont do them?

How would you feel being in a communal room in your house when two other people come in and start kissing passionately, groping, and… cringe…. dare i say it… babytalking?

I personally CANT STAND IT ! And can say with confidence that i never do it! This is a regular occurence in my house and it seriously makes me want to be sick. Get a room! (its only about 4 footsteps away for gods sake!)

Even typing this makes me cringe….. argh!

I feel it necessary to post good things as well as bad on this website to make the contents of this site slightly less one sided. So… heres something positive: After the vomiting incident yesterday (thank you Sam!!) I eventually went into the bathroom to find remnants of vomit on the toilet seat. I walked out of the bathroom unable to go near the toilet as the thought of cleaning up his spew was enough to make me want to spew also. Thank god for Meg (housemate No2). She heard my comments regarding the state of the loo and she went in and cleaned it. I figure this is fair as she has lived with Sam for many years, compared to the few months i’ve lived there, so obviously she is more comfortable with getting close to his bodily excretions!! THANK YOU MEG!
