You’d think that at my age I’d be able to confront conflict and
acknowledge emotion but at heart I’m still a twenty year old who has no idea
how to find a real balance and happiness with life.
Which is why I’m having such a problem telling Heather that
she needs to get off my fucking couch.
I am happy to support my friend in a hobby that we both seem
to share but it’s time. It’s god damn time she went home and dealt with the
fact that she murdered her husband and I’ve been doing all the hard work. I
cleaned her house, I reported him missing, I filed all of her paperwork so she
could sit on my couch moping for weeks on end. She needs to start doing
something productive. And that starts with her sleeping in own bed at home by
the end of this week.
I have no other priorities other than getting Heather off my
god damn couch by Friday night. Or so help me there will be another murder.
She got toothpaste on the counter and didn’t clean it up. I
know that’s an incredibly minor thing but it’s on a list of 400 other minor
things that she’s done in the past month to piss me off. She left an empty milk
cartoon in the fridge, she’s stopped folding up the blankets on the couch, on
more than one occasion she’s “accidentally” walked into my room without
knocking. It’s like living with a frat boy and I’m over it.
The boys have been ready for her to leave for a while now
but I’ve defended her because she’s my friend and apparently murder is
traumatic but now she’s just pissing me off.
I’ve thought about how to approach her and I’ve narrowed it
down to two approaches: “Get over it and get out!” or “Hey Heather, I thought
we’d drive by your house today and pick up your mail.”
Like I said: the emotional stability of a twenty-year-old. I’d
like to go with the latter but something tells me I’m going to end up shouting
the former on Friday afternoon before she leaves work.
I promise that’s not my plan but realistically, that’s what’s
going to happen.
That’s not my intention but it will happen.
I’m a bad person sometimes.
As always, dear readers,
Stay Safe
