The Roommate

OK - this probably doesn't sound like a big deal. But boy! did this annoy me!

I came home Tuesday and noticed a new plastic shower curtain hanging in the shower. I, obviously, had not put it there. Roommate did.

Now it seems like I should regard this as a sweet thing, a kind gesture on her part. But I don't. For one, it's a $.99, snow white flimsy piece of crap. I want my shower liner to match the curtain so I buy ecru/off-white. And the stupid liner should not be sooo lightweight as to blow in the breeze of hot shower steam. Two, she was being sneaky and didn't discuss changing something in my house with me. Three, she got rid of something belonging to me without even a note. (but since I'm such a thief, I guess turn-around's fair play. Bah!)

I confronted her last night. I was nice but asked why, where's mine, talk to me next time, etc. She was uncomfortable and talked fast. She thought the old liner was getting too crudy on the bottom. I don't remember it being like that but then I don't study the liner that often. Even if it did need to be replaced she should have asked me. My house, my responsibility.

Grrrrrr.

I agree with you about the flimsy shower curtains that blow in and touch your legs while you shower. UGH! Why do they even make those I wonder?

But obviously there's more going on in your post. When I don't like someone, everything they do gets on my nerves. Everything. So she's on your nerves, and it's mostly NOT about the shower curtain.

Okay. I've done a little "catch up" on the roommate situation in your previous posts. I get it now. Touchy spot you're in.

I'm not sure I could have continued to live with her after she accused me of stealing!

TLP - new pros and cons post just for you =-)

Heidi - Brwahhhahahahahaha. That's great! 'Couse I don't think I'd be that comfortable with a guy roommate so I may be doomed.

Jen - totally with you. Just being ruled by the almighty dollar thing. I'm so shallow....

You know you can wash your shower curtain in the w machine. Just add a towel or two and they shine right up. Don't even bother putting them in the dryer if you get my drift. hehehhe

I wonder what she did with your old shower curtain. Dumb bitch.
